Society & Culture
The holidays aren’t joyful for everyone—and for many disabled people and caregivers, this season brings unique challenges that often go unseen. In this episode, we look beyond the glitter and celebration to talk honestly about access barriers, financial strain, family dynamics, ableism, and the emotional weight the season can carry.
We also explore practical ways to create a more inclusive, compassionate holiday season—whether you’re disabled, a caregiver, an ally, or part of an organization planning seasonal programming. You’ll walk away with tools, tips, and resources to help make this time of year more supportive for everyone.
