Send us Fan Mail If your DEI strategy can’t even get someone a standing desk, we’ve got bigger problems. In this bold and unfiltered episode, host Danny Gluch sits down with three powerhouse professionals who know what it’s like to advocate for equity - not just in theory, but in real life, in real workplaces, with real consequences. Together, they unpack the systemic ignorance disabled employees often face - and the everyday empathy that could fix it. Pearl Brady - DEI practitioner and inclusion strategist with over 15 years of experience Ashley Kera - Talent leader, coach, and founder of Kera Coaching & Consulting Lia Seth - Director of People at Cylinder and self-proclaimed Accessibility Queen Together, they tackle: The emotional and professional toll of asking for “reasonable” accommodations How fear, assumptions, and untrained managers weaponize policy Why trust is more powerful than paperwork What real equity looks like (spoiler: it’s not one-size-fits-all) The $0 solutions organizations are still ignoring And the golden rule we’re apparently still not following: Just be a decent human being. This is the episode HR should be required to listen to.
