New Podcast - From the Outskirts - Regional and Rural Women with Disability
Welcome to one in a series of podcasts about women from rural and regional Victoria and Melbourne outer east living with disabilities.
In this episode, Liz Wright talks with Elise Stewart, CEO of Deaf Hub, Bendigo. Whilst Elise discusses some challenging topics, she’s funny and honest and this is a really fascinating conversation.
Some of the content contains swearing and some of the content may be considered triggering.
Please enjoy and if you have any issues, you can call Lifeline on 13 11 14.
