  <title>A Year of Chronic Pain and Disability: Internalised Ableism, Accommodations and Why Pain Still Sucks</title>
  <description>A year after the very dangerous act of sleep left me with chronic nerve pain, I'm reflecting on internalised ableism, the accommodations that help, and the fears that have held me back from doing big, scary things, plus I'm sharing the big scary exciting ways I'm not letting them stop me! &amp;quot;There's no one right way to be human. There's no one right ideal of productivity or capacity. There's no one right way to do anything at all.&amp;quot; In this episode I share:  How internalised ableism shows up in the shoulds I say to myself, and the standards we hold ourselves to that we'd never hold anyone else to The accommodations that help when my body doesn't body very reliably, and why pain can still suck with all of them in place Why any support you offer needs to be visible and easy to reach, so no one has to beg for it  Links:  I'm doing a one-day training in Wollongong with The Thrive Spot and I'm so, so excited!
