The ElseSpace... a talk for anyone who has ever felt unwell

Humans are uncomfortable with illness and disability. Maria Guarino has introduced a space for us to explore our illnesses and disabilities called the ElseSpace. This is a space where binaries like "well" and "unwell" do not exist and a place where it is okay to not be okay.

This talk was presented to a local audience at TEDxAmherst, an independent event.
