Tech, AAC, and the Power of Real Connection with Dr. Beth Moulam | S4 | E28

The ability to connect with others is a joy. Rachel reflects on the things that support and prevent connection (technical and human!) with the brilliant Dr. Beth Moulam, Paralympian, researcher, advocate and award winning all round super human.

Beth shares her thoughts on the communication tools we all use, and the tools she uses. The challenges she faces (spoiler alert - it’s normally other people), and the joy she finds in creating new connections, and creating community around her, in the breathtaking number of fields she’s involved in.

Rachel, Sarah and Lucy bring updates and reflections, there's news from the Moths, and Lucy broke a TSWU record, by swearing right from the outset - having to bring “all your BLEEPING podcast BEEP to work is not the best way to start the day!

You can find more about Beth on her website and you tube page.
