If you're an abled person who doesn't have to worry about ableism in your day to day life, you're likely unaware of the many different shapes and forms that ableism can take. I know it's certainly a relatively new topic for me! And that's why I'm so excited to share this episode with you, featuring Beth Gorishek from Adaptive Knitter.
Beth has been adapting everything ~ including her knitting ~ her entire life as someone who is limb different. She's passionate about teaching folks how to become more adaptive, but she's also passionate about bringing more awareness to ableism. As a business owner who isn't especially familiar with ableism, you may be unknowingly excluding folks through ableist business practices and design!
Dive into this episode to learn what ableism is and how it might be currently showing up in your business.
