Episode 14: Stomping On Cerebral Palsy

In Episode 14 of We Are The Stigma, your co-hosts share an inspiring chat with cerebral palsy advocate and writer, Tylia Flores. The trio share an eye-opening and honest conversation about what CP (cerebral palsy) is, the common misconceptions, and how able-bodied members of society can better support the disabled community. Tylia’s message and infectious positive attitude have inspired Melissa and Cody to stomp on their stigmas one day at a time, and we know she’ll do the same for you! As always, come join us as we learn, share, laugh and grow. 

Tylia Flores is a 24-year-old born with cerebral palsy. Although her condition has affected her mobility, it has never affected her will and determination to make a difference in the world. Through her many life challenges and obstacles, she discovered her passion for writing. Tylia’s goal in life is to share her stories with the world. In doing so, she hopes to help others with disabilities realize that they, too, have the potential to make their dreams come true.
