On this InVisible InCourage SHOW episode, Kennedi Dotson, an IDA Ambassador, shares her journey of living with invisible disabilities, including Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, IBS, and fibromyalgia. Kennedi discusses her experience with disbelief and misunderstanding as a teen, highlighting the importance of self-advocacy and a strong support system. She also talks about how she used her passion for pageantry to create a platform called "P.U.S.H." (Please Understand Silent Health issues) to educate and advocate for others. This powerful interview will encourage anyone who has ever felt unseen, misunderstood, or alone.

The Invisible Disabilities® Association (IDA) is a 501(c)3 nonprofit charity.
IDA is changing the way the world sees disabilities. IDA is about believing. We believe you! The frequently invisible nature of illness and pain may lead to disbelief about that illness or pain by those surrounding the person who lives daily with invisible disabilities. This disbelief can lead to misunderstandings, rejection by friends, family and health care providers. It may also lead to accusations of laziness or faking an illness. We are passionate about providing awareness that invisible illness, pain and disabilities are very real! Our mission is to encourage, educate and connect people and organizations touched by illness, pain and disability around the globe. Envision with us, a world where people living with illness, pain and disability will be Invisible No More®.
