In this week’s episode I am sitting down with the person who knows me best and has certainly known me the longest, my mom Audrey Curwin. We discuss how I got diagnosed, what it meant to her to become an average-height parent of a little person child, and how we both learned how to advocate for accessibility in an inaccessible world.

To start, I would like to issue a trigger warning. This week's episode talks about disordered eating, eating disorders, and body image. If these are triggers for you, please feel free to skip this episode.

With this week being National Eating Disorder Awareness Week, I am sharing a part of my story I have hinted at but have never fully told and that is my battle with disordered eating and recovery journey.

In this week’s episode, I sat down with Emily Voorde. Emily currently works in The White House as an Associate Director in the Office of Public Engagement. Prior to joining the Biden administration she worked on the Pete for America campaign as a body woman for Chasten Buttigieg. We discuss our learning of what it means to be a little person and to be disabled, why representation matters, especially because disability is so diverse, her current work in the Biden administration and the impact she is making on a daily basis.
