Today I am joined by Keisha Greaves, founder of Girls Chronically Rock, who discusses her journey as an entrepreneur with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy.
She shares her thoughts on the impact of social media for disability support, and the inspiration behind her adaptive fashion brand. Keisha emphasizes the importance of inclusive design, using materials like Velcro and magnetic snaps. Keisha also discusses her role as a disability advocate and her aspirations for future collaborations and a possible reality show, which I personally think would be fantastic!
👉 Follow Keisha on Instagram at @OwnerOfGirlsChronicallyRock to learn more of her story and check out her adaptive wear!
✨ Next time on The TyePod: I talk with Emily Oberst (@Emily_Oberst), who is a Paralympic basketball player!

With love,
Your friendly neighborhood PhD
