Permission to Be Curious
Ever had a question about disability but didn’t ask because you were afraid of saying the wrong thing? Permission to Be Curious is here to help with that. This podcast is where curiosity meets real talk. No sugarcoating. No tiptoeing awkwardly (and not just because I can’t tiptoe). Just honest conversations about disability, assumptions, and what it really means to connect with others. So go ahead. Ask. Listen. Connect. Maybe even laugh a little. It’s time to get curious.
Episodes
In this episode of Permission to Be Curious, Katie Joy challenges the idea that communication only “counts” when it is spoken out loud. From emojis to translation apps to text messages, this conversation explores how communication supports already shape daily life, and why those same tools are viewed differently when disability is part of the picture.
What if asking questions could change the world? In this episode, we explore how we can use curiosity as a powerful tool for connection, inclusion, and challenging the status quo. When we dare to ask, listen, and truly see each other, we can disrupt assumptions and create space for everyone to have a voice.
Curiosity is courage. Keep asking. Keep listening. Keep connecting.
When billionaires start throwing around words like "parasite class," it's time to set the record straight. In this episode, we're talking about who really contributes to society, why productivity doesn't define worth, and how ableist narratives fuel exclusion. Spoiler alert: Disabled people aren't the problem. Bias is! Let's chat about why these outdated mindsets persist and what happens when we refuse to shrink to fit them.
