Continuing the Conversation with Team InvincAble; Tash Price & Adam Sheppard

Every year IWD nominates a theme for discussion and attention, this year, the theme is #breakthebias and as like all years past there is much conversation and frenzy leading up to and during the week that IWD actually falls. However, that is usually where the conversation ends until the next year.

I am continuing the conversation by interviewing amazing humans around the world to better understand what #breakthebias means to different people in different circumstances, how they see bias play out in their life and what they are doing both personally and within their organisations to #breakthebias.

Today I am chatting with Team InvincAble; Tash Price and Adam Sheppard. Team InvincAble consists of two amazing humans.  Natasha Price, an elite wheelchair athlete, entrepreneur, speaker, podcaster, published author, awards winner, Oceania Athletics Champion, international marathon winner and Gold Coast Women of the Year Champion of Sport 2022, and I know she has so much more to add to the list … and Adam Sheppard, an athletics coach, personal trainer, retired para athlete, former Australian record holder, Australian Sports Medal recipient, awards winner, speaker, podcaster, and entrepreneur. Together, Natasha and Adam founded InvincAble, where this unstoppable team utilise their decades of lived and work experience in the field of disability, mindset and sports to empower, inspire and create the kind of change that will have a meaningful impact on people of all abilities worldwide.

Join us today as we discuss the intersectionality of gender and disability, the need to have compassion for people acting from unconscious bias, the shame of our own unconscious bias and how to move past it, how can able-bodied parents help their own children #breakthebias, the importance of all sexes being part of the conversation and solution, and getting people with lived experience involved I the design process and so much more.
