Challenging Ableism and Redefining Productivity with Ruby Allegra

You hold inherent value, regardless of what you're producing and giving to the world.
Feeling overwhelmed by the constant pressure to be productive? In this episode of 'Why Am I Like This?!', Tash and Caitlin are joined by the insightful Ruby Allegra to tackle some heavy but important topics. From the cozy confines of Studio ADL, the trio dives into the complexities of ableism, creativity, and the societal obsession with busyness. Ruby brings a fresh perspective to the conversation, shedding light on how ableism intersects with race, gender, and other forms of marginalization.
They discuss how these intersections often exacerbate the challenges faced by disabled and chronically ill individuals. The episode doesn't shy away from tough subjects like internalized ableism and even touches on the dark history of eugenics. Yet, it also offers a hopeful message: you are more than your productivity. Tash, Caitlin, and Ruby remind listeners that everyone has inherent value, regardless of societal expectations.
If you're ready to rethink what it means to be 'productive' and challenge your own biases, this episode is a must-listen. It's an eye-opening discussion that encourages self-reflection and growth.
