Three-time cancer survivor Lori Frisher shares her new disability journey, having already been living being deaf with two Cochlear implants.

July was Disability Pride Month, and this thriver and second-acter at 51 has recently 'rang the bell' receiving the "all clear" on her latest bought with cancer. Since her October diagnosis, she's been on a ride in her new life's journey. It's one for the books, having now taken on a new disability in the wake of her survival. But if you know this advocate and speaker on adding #Ableism to #DEIinitiatives, you know she's resilient and coming back stronger than before.

Listen to her story in my latest talk or watch her tell it on YouTube  youtube.com/barbarabrooks.
