Episode 112: Liberation

Unlock the resilience of Dalyce and discover how advocacy, art, and community can revolutionize living with chronic illness. Dalyce was diagnosed with Type One Diabetes at the age of 7. Dalyce’s story isn’t just about surviving; it's about reclaiming agency in a society built on systemic oppression and medical injustice. From childhood fears to decades of pushing her body to prove societal assumptions wrong, Dalyce shares an unfiltered look at what it truly means to live with a disability in America. She vividly recounts her diagnoses, the mental and physical toll of managing health in a system that often neglects or dismisses POC, and how her journey abroad in Ireland and Thailand offered a glimpse of freedom that she fights to reclaim every day. Dalyce reveals the trauma of medical neglect, the heartbreak of food and insulin insecurity, and the emotional weight of isolating systemic barriers, all while embodying fierce creativity and advocacy.Follow Dalyce on instagram @black_bird_photo
