Navigating the Holidays: Disability Disclosure, Advocacy, and Social Dynamics

Navigating the Holidays: Disability Disclosure, Advocacy, and Social Dynamics

The holiday season is often filled with family gatherings, work parties, and social catch-ups, but it can also amplify feelings of social isolation—especially for neurodivergent, chronically ill, and disabled people.

Navigating these spaces can be challenging, from managing energy levels to advocating for your needs.

Join us for a free online community talk where we’ll explore practical strategies for discussing your disability, setting boundaries, and advocating for yourself in both personal and social settings.

Led by Chanelle Morris, a disability advocate and motivational speaker who uses her lived experience of navigating life with 30% vision to uplift and empower others, this session will give you the tools, confidence, and voice to approach the season on your terms.

When: 7pm AEDT on Wednesday the 18th of December.

Where: Via Zoom.

The session will also be recorded for those of you who can’t make it or live in different timezones.

Your host:

Chanelle Morris, a disability advocate and motivational speaker who uses her lived experience of navigating life with 30% vision to uplift and empower others.
