Danusia Malina-Derben sits down with Rebekah Taussig, author of Sitting Pretty: The View from My Ordinary, Resilient Disabled Body, to unpack the complexities of living with a disability. In this episode, Rebekah challenges the oversimplified narratives that often surround disabled lives and calls for a more inclusive, open-hearted perspective.
From embracing her body to navigating pregnancy, Rebekah shares stories that illuminate the richness, challenges, and ordinariness of disability—pushing past stereotypes of pity or inspiration. They discuss how society’s fear of disability limits understanding and how breaking those barriers starts with recognizing the nuance in every human experience.
Danusia and Rebekah also dive into the untold stories of disabled motherhood, touching on everything from baby kicks to the broader need for representation.
This conversation is a profound reminder: disability doesn’t diminish humanity—it enriches it.
