		<description>A refreshing approach, directly shared from lived experience, to the conversation of disability equity and inclusion, with expert Lesa Bradshaw. This frank and often chuckle-worthy show disrupts the unconscious biases that have traditionally devalued persons with disabilities in our economy and society. It flips the thinking in our approach to inclusion, it makes the conversation of disability confidence easy, and it shares stories which land with impact about how slight adjustments to how we do business, life and society benefits everyone.</description>

		<title>Season2 - Ep 1 : From Whispered Worries to Real Conversations</title>
		<link>https://iono.fm/e/1639438</link>
		<guid isPermaLink="true">https://iono.fm/e/1639438</guid>
		<description><![CDATA[This episode tackles the difficult questions about disability inclusion that hiring managers and leaders often think, but rarely say out loud. With her trademark straight talking, humour and lived experience, Lesa brings these conversations into the open, removing fear, awkwardness and assumptions along the way.<br />
<br />
From language and terminology, to performance stigma, workplace adjustments and interview etiquette, the discussion unpacks what leaders actually need to understand in order to make informed, fair and confident decisions. Through practical examples and real-world scenarios, Lesa challenges the idea that disability is a risk, reframing it instead as an opportunity to design better workplaces, stronger teams and more competitive businesses.<br />
<br />
Grounded in respect, curiosity and common sense, this episode reinforces a powerful message: you don’t need all the answers to become disability-confident, but you do need the courage to ask better questions and learn from lived experience. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This podcast adopts a slightly more formal tone as it explores the importance of leadership and disability confidence among business stakeholders. It highlights the return on investment that comes from intentional efforts to build a barrier-free, enabling, and inclusive culture for all. By drawing on the lived insights and experiences of employees and customers with disabilities, the episode demonstrates their value and offers practical tips to help leaders and decision-makers understand what I see: that disability confidence is achievable, beneficial for business, and positive for everyone. ]]></description>

		<link>https://iono.fm/e/1495539</link>
		<guid isPermaLink="true">https://iono.fm/e/1495539</guid>
		<description><![CDATA[This episode brings a bit of context to the personal stories used by Lesa to create a shift in thinking about disability and it’s place in society. Shared narratives have the capacity to alter people's perceptions of the world, making them a powerful tool to shift the unconscious prejudice that so frequently shapes our actions. Referencing the highly entertaining experiences of her post-divorce dating as a 40 year old woman with a disability, Lesa shares her position on disability confidence as an enabler for all. ]]></description>
