Living With a Dynamic Disability - Ep4

To answer some more reader questions, let’s start with a “Top 5” and a question YOU can answer, too!

From @in_the_midst_of_the_fog:

My Top 5 Things to Pack When You Go on Vacation:

1 - ice packs

2 - neck fan

3 - heating blanket

4 - shower chair/mobility aids

5 - clothes that your body might need if you’re in pain, need compression, are too hot or too cold, etc (think of the options you already experience…)

And listen for the answer to @ _lindsey_p_ 's question this week, too: "What benefits have you seen from being chronically ill?"

(Plus, I’d love to hear if you have any benefits you’d like to share… Dm them to me!)


I also talk about:

  • What IS a Dynamic Disability?

  • What it can look like - using some personal examples…

  • What does a “good day” look like?

  • Learning that “No” is a complete sentence - but what if they don’t understand?

  • How to manage alternatives to plans you’ve already made

Plus, hang in till the end for four important takeaways!


If you have a burning question you want me to answer on a future episode, feel free to dm me on my Instagram @be_potsitive!

Thanks for listening!
