Ever wished there was more inclusivity in the fashion world? Stephanie Thomas, our remarkable guest for today's show, is making this dream a reality. Born with a disability, she's transformed her personal challenges into a mission aimed at changing the fashion industry. Listen in as we peel back the layers on her personal journey, her battle against internalized ableism, and her advice to young people with disabilities on establishing their self-worth.
Stephanie guides us through her path as an entrepreneur in the fashion sector. She shares her perspective on the industry's slow response to inclusivity and her experiences on adaptive clothing projects. We wade into the importance of representation and understanding the specific needs of people with disabilities when designing clothes. Join us as we unearth how fashion can serve as a confidence booster, and why it's crucial to see more voices with lived experiences in the fashion industry.
Finally, we expand the conversation by touching on disability representation in the Black community. We discuss the importance of grassroots initiatives and including people with disabilities in discussions about entrepreneurship and Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI). Stephanie generously shares her passion for advocacy, intersectionality, and her mission to shift culture. This captivating conversation is both empowering and enlightening, providing valuable insights about self-definition and the power of creating your own reality.
