Meet Hollis Peirce, a Canadian writer, disability advocate, and the inspiring voice behind the 21st Century Disability podcast. After surviving a life-threatening respiratory crisis in 2021, Hollis now lives in a long-term care hospital—yet continues to create, advocate, and thrive. In this episode, we explore how he finds purpose through writing, why representation matters in disability spaces, and what others often get wrong when talking about accessibility.Hollis is a testament to the power of persistence—not in spite of his circumstances, but within them.Connect with Hollis at:Website: https://www.21stcenturydisability.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/21stcenturydisability/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/21stcenturydisability/You Will Learn:How one life-altering medical crisis transformed Hollis’s understanding of purposeThe surprising challenges (and freedoms) of long-term careWhy universal design isn’t just for people with disabilities—it’s for everyoneLizbeth’s links Want to comment on the show?
