We are delighted to share our chat with Maggie Chapman (she/they) in Episode 2 of our 9 FOR 9 Real Talk Series.
Maggie is a disability support and mental health advocate following a diagnosis of Functional Neurological Disease (FND) in 2020 after many years of undiagnosed symptoms. Maggie opens up on their experience with FND, how the journey impacted their mental health and how she has used adversity to become a voice for those in the disabled community.
Maggie touches on the importance of community, belonging and acceptance and how she found all of those things within the disabled community. Maggie's ability to candidly express the difficulties she has faced throughout their experience and their drive to find their own identity through turbulent circumstances is incredibly inspiring.
Find out more about Maggie and follow their journey @maggie.chapman on Insta and you can listen to Maggie's journey on their own segment of 'The FND Podcast' called 'Maggie's Corner'.
It was an incredible honour to hear Maggie's story!
