Join the co founders of TCC Sharon Wilson and Cindy LaCom in a heart-to-heart discussion as we shed light on a topic close to the heart: the unseen struggles of invisible disabilities in the workplace. Imagine navigating a workday where your challenges are hidden, silently wrestling with barriers that others can't see—this is the daily reality for many. Our conversation aims to pierce through societal and cultural biases, advocating for an essential shift in understanding disabilities through a social lens. We share our personal journeys along with wisdom from scholars like Sarah Buder and Rose Perry, underlining the critical need for acknowledging and addressing the nuances that foster truly inclusive environments.
In this episode, we don't just spotlight issues; we offer blueprints for building more supportive spaces for those with non-apparent disabilities. Addressing the transformation of workplace culture, we discuss the importance of training on ableism, biases, and stigma, touching on language use and the prevalence of microaggressions. We debate the significance of diversity in representation and inspect company practices, emphasizing the integration of accommodations as a fabric of the everyday work environment. Join us in this empowering episode as we extend an invitation to become part of a community determined to bring about change and provide resources to those committed to enhancing their organizational culture.
