Bloggers with disabilities on No Limits.

Australian disability bloggers on the set of No Limits - Carly Findlay, Leisa Prowd, Hayley Cafarella and Michelle Roger

You might remember that late last year I was invited back to produce and anchor an episode of No Limits on Channel 31. My dear friend Kath (director of the show) was interested in how blogging allows people with disabilities to have a voice, and she wanted me to discuss that.

I asked some other dear friends – who I’ve met through blogging of course – to chat with me. Hayley, Michelle and Leisa came to the studio and were complete SUPERSTARS! We could have chatted about this all day!

What’s so awesome about blogging is that we are making our own media, controlling the way our stories are being told, and making meaningful connections and positive change.

You can watch our program here now! I received the DVD copy of the program and have finally had access to super fast internet to upload it.

I really enjoyed the discussion about how it can be a big responsibility to blog about illness and disability, and the expectation that readers can place on you.

How wonderful it is to be a part of a niche blogging community, and also the wider Australian blogging community. These conversations need to happen more!

Also, if you are an Australian blogger with a disability or chronic illness and would like to join a wonderfully supportive Facebook group, you can do so here. And if you want to contribute to my blog via a guest post, I wrote how you can do so here.

(The original post about the filming and screening was here.)
