About this listen

I’m joined by writer, journalist, speaker, and fierce disability advocate Zoe Simmons, who shares her raw take on dating while disabled, navigating ableism, and why accessibility matters for everyone.

Zoe opens up about the realities of chronic illness, invisible disabilities, and what it’s like dating as an autistic, chronically ill queer woman in a world that often gets it very wrong. We talk ghosting, medical gaslighting, using mobility aids, and the joy of finding real connection.

From wild date stories to calling out performative inclusivity in media, this episode is a must-listen for anyone wanting to better understand how to show up, speak up, and do better.

Featuring: toxic exes, awkward dates, sensory joys, chronic pain, internet crushes, and Zoe’s dream of writing a TV show where disability is just part of life — not the whole plot.
