Episode Summary:
In this episode, I’m interviewing Ali Ingersoll, a day trader, consultant, disability advocate, writer, blogger, editor, and public speaker. After being repeatedly denied medical equipment by insurance companies over the 10 years since becoming a C6 quadriplegic, Ali started her advocacy mission. In this episode, Ali tells her story and hits on sexuality, body image, love, life, and sex.
