Living Chronic: Ability At Work
Welcome to Living Chronic: Ability at Work, the podcast where disability meets the future of work.
Hosted by Brandy Schantz—a disabled veteran, workplace accommodation expert, workforce development leader, and author—this podcast challenges the way we think about disability in the workplace. Through honest conversations, expert insights, and lived experience, we explore what it really takes to build workplaces where everyone has the opportunity to thrive.
Each episode tackles the issues shaping today's workforce: disability inclusion, reasonable accommodations, AI and the future of work, chronic illness, veterans in the workplace, mental health, leadership, public policy, and the systems that help, or hinder, people with disabilities from reaching their full potential. You'll hear from HR leaders, policymakers, researchers, medical experts, business executives, advocates, and people living with disabilities who are redefining what work can look like.
Whether you're an employer trying to create a more inclusive organization, an HR professional navigating complex accommodation decisions, a policymaker shaping the future of work, or someone living with a disability or chronic illness, this podcast offers practical strategies, thoughtful conversations, and a fresh perspective on one of the largest untapped talent pools in today's workforce.
Because disability isn't a barrier to talent, barriers are built into the systems around it. Together, we can dismantle those barriers, build belonging, and create workplaces where ability is recognized, supported, and valued.
Living Chronic: Ability at Work—changing the conversation about disability, one workplace at a time.
