Episode 088 - Part Two - Ardra Shephard is Tripping on Air

Kathy Chester

When the time came for Ardra Shephard to start using mobility aids, she was frustrated to note that there was no representation – in fashion or the media – of disabled people using their mobility aids, while looking GOOD. So she decided to change the narrative.

Ardra is now a sought-after writer, consultant, and speaker, whose award-winning blog Tripping On Air has an international reach and reputation. She is also the creator and host of AMI-tv’s lifestyle series Fashion Dis, which is a game-changer in the makeover space, challenging traditional norms that lack inclusion. 

In the final part of this two-part interview, Ardra talks about how she was diagnosed with MS in her 20s, the ways that the traditional "wait-and-see" narrative of diagnosis could be improved, and how people need to work towards ditching the guilt around the use of mobility aids.
