Raising Resilience Episode 9: Reimagining Resilience
from Raising Resilience · host Pamela Ressler
Kate Nicholson is a civil rights rights attorney, an arts activist, and, recently, a writer and speaker. She served in the Civil Rights Division of the Department of Justice for more than twenty years and is a nationally-recognized expert on the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). And then it changed…Kate was thrust into the personal lived experience of severe, chronic pain and disability, something as an ADA lawyer she was all too familiar with professionally but not personally. As a self-described “Type A”, Kate struggled with maintaining her professional identity, her passion for advocacy and change, along with her need to slow down and listen to her body and its new limitations.
