Description
<p>Elizabeth Wright has had something of a multifacted career so far. Born in Australlia with Limb Difference, Elizabeth is a writer, speaker, editor and activist. She has twice competed as a Paralympic medalist for Australia in 1996 and 2000. She is also the founder and editor of Conscious Being, a magazine that has - at the time of recording - just launched into the print world. She is also a disability campaigner, speaker and consultant. This is the first episode of The Disability Collab podcast, so there may be little audio glitches at times. In this we cover Elizabeth's career, the print launch of Conscious Being (there were some tears. It was an emotional night.), the need for disability representation, and more. </p> <p>Resources referenced in this episode: </p> <p>Conscious Being online: https://medium.com/conscious-life </p> <p>Print version to buy: https://www.flipsnack.comConsciousBeingMagazine/conscious-being-magazine.html </p> <p>Elizabeth Wright on Twitter: https://twitter.com/esioul </p> <p>Elizabeth's website: http://www.elizabethwright.net </p> <p>How to pitch Conscious Being: https://medium.com/conscious-life/write-for-us-b67584507292 </p> <p>Editor’s note: there were some technical issues at the time of recording.
