Accessibility Isn’t Abstract: What Happened When My Home Stopped Working and What's Up for 2026

After an unexpected pause, Curb Cuts and Conversations returns with a personal story about what happens when a once-ideal home becomes inaccessible. I share why I had to move, what an accessible home actually changes in daily life, and how this experience is shaping the podcast’s focus on housing, cities, and accessibility in 2026.

🎙️Curb Cuts and Conversations is a monthly podcast about accessible urbanism, public transit, and wheelchair life with experts and lived experience voices. Hosted by Elizabeth McCready with regular cameos by one of her two cats Boo, and a different guest every episode.
