Blind or partially sighted individuals can sometimes feel excluded or experience a lack of belonging, whether it comes as a result of social situations with family or friends or larger, more generalized societal attitudes. In this episode Shawn welcomes Dougie, Keisha, and Clement back to the show where they discuss their own experiences of feeling excluded and struggling to find belonging and how lack of accessibility, societal attitudes and misconceptions can lead to feelings of isolation and marginalization. They share their personal experiences of navigating high school, finding supportive friends, and embracing their authentic selves to find their own sense of belonging.
