The Forgotten Conversation: Supporting Adults with Disabilities
<p>In this powerful episode of my Women In STEM Podcast, I sit down with Paul, a talented producer and filmmaker, to tackle a critical yet often-overlooked topic: adults with disabilities in the workforce. As someone who navigates STEM with dyslexia, I lead an honest conversation about why society's support seems to fade once disabled children become adults.</p><p>Paul and I dive deep into shocking statistics about disability employment gaps while sharing our personal journeys—his experiences in the film industry and my own path in STEM. Together, we explore the unique challenges faced by women with disabilities in STEM fields, who often encounter what we call a "double disadvantage" in their careers.</p><p>From workplace accommodations to transformative tech solutions like Imagine Dragon and Grammarly, we offer practical insights for both individuals with disabilities and employers seeking to create more inclusive environments. Whether you're a professional with a disability, an ally, or an employer, our conversation will open your eyes to the untold stories of adults with disabilities in the workforce.</p><p></p><p><strong>⭐ CONNECT WITH US ⭐</strong></p><p>New LinkedIn Page : <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/women-in-stem-podcast">https://www.linkedin.com/company/women-in-stem-podcast</a></p><p>All links: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="http://linktr.ee/womeninstem_podcast">linktr.ee/womeninstem_podcast</a></p><p>Instagram: @womeninstem_podcast</p><p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.instagram.com/womeninstem_podcast/">https://www.instagram.com/womeninstem_podcast/</a></p><p></p><p>Paul's Links </p><p>Instgram - <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.instagram.com/alondonerslondon_/">https://www.instagram.com/alondonerslondon_/</a></p><p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Atherton?fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAaZbjMZ6YkTxBLMtX1PRIpaTCHrTjKD7G2P53YKgy5AWA8rqDJT6RdfFb5o_aem_UyNeYjAoXJGI8Sqjm5J4pw">Wikipedia Page</a></p><p>Twitter - <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://x.com/LondonersLondon">https://x.com/LondonersLondon</a></p><p></p><p></p>
