#45 Championing (Hidden) Disabilities with Nadia Kendall

For the #45 episode, we introduce you to Nadia Kendall, Head of Hidden Disabilities at We Belong Europe.  Nadia has a law and politics background, she is both American and Luxembourg, with Iranian and Caribbean backgrounds. Since a young age, Nadia experienced gastrointestinal pain and she was misdiagnosed til her later teenage years. In conversation, with Nadia, we discussed the struggle that people with hidden disabilities face to get properly diagnosed and the impact of being invalidated. We also discussed our brand new program NeuroEquity, that she coordinates, where we will support affected individuals with workshops, research and advocacy campaigns. https://www.webelongeurope.com/hiddendisabilitiesprogram With the support of André Losch Foundation.
