On Being Ill

What’s This Podcast
About?

On Being Ill is a podcast that platforms innovative thinkers working at the intersections of creativity and disability. Hosted by poet, academic, and author, Dr. Emilia Nielsen, you’ll hear conversations about illness, chronic pain, crip joy, and how we’re harnessing the capacity of our creative praxes to build worlds 𝘧𝘰𝘳 disability. In season 5, we speak with three scholars who are writing new worlds into existence—worlds where vocal differences are embraced; where access becomes more comprehensive; and where messages from the natural world , whether hushed or thunderous, are listened to.
