This week, our hosts Jennie and Damian chat with Kelly Gordon about loneliness and dating as a disabled person.
Kelly Gordon is a 32 year old entrepreneur and consultant based in the West Midlands, UK. She has Spinal Muscular Atrophy Type 3 which is a genetic disability meaning for her, that she uses an electric wheelchair to get around. Kelly's condition is progressive and has meant that she has faced losing her ability throughout her life especially when her body faced big changes and challenges such as pregnancy.
Kelly has always been feisty and outspoken so you wouldn't assume she would find dating with a disability difficult but we learn that this wasn't always the case via a funny story about the lengths she went to on a date, hiding that she was a wheelchair user!
This podcast looks at society's perception of disability and how this can impact disabled people in their disclosure of impairments. This could be in the dating arena or in the workplace, which can ultimately lead to loneliness. -
