Taking Back Control Of Your Body Through Sex work(!?) & Challenging Our Perspectives: More Lessons From a Blind Girl

@theblindcharity is a young woman living and working in Edmonton, Canada. She joined host Patrick Strevens back in July of this year to share her story and discuss what it's like living as a blind and brain-injured woman in an abled world.At the age of 14, Charity suffered a brain injury which left her with a greatly reduced visual field, among other neurological problems, and yet she lives a fulfilling life: independent, social, and unafraid to advocate for change.In the second part of their conversation, Charity talks about her time as a self-described sex worker, and how she used her platform and position to build a community, advocate for change, and educate others. Plus: how can you, as an abled person, understand and live alongside disabled people, and what does the future of the disabled living in an abled world look like?Lastly, be sure to stick around for the end of the conversation which touches on the failing hormonal health of our time, the sinister side of female birth control, and the impossible question of abortion rights.When building our Better Life, let's ask how can we mindfully challenge what we believe about things? (Including sex work and the disabled) and how can re-take control of our bodies from hormonal destruction?Be sure to check out the first part of this conversation in last week's episode where Charity shared her story, and she and Patrick discussed living your values and creating your identity.
