Lucy Loves Kelly Knox

In this week’s episode I’m joined by one of Britain’s most influential disabled people who devotes herself to motivating and inspiring future generations. Kelly Knox has featured on several campaigns with large corporations such as Primark, as well as using her online presence to encourage people to embrace their uniqueness by celebrating her body in a way which encourages others to do the same.  Kelly has my full admiration and respect as she is an individual who embodies resilience in the face of adversity, as well as being a hard-working and determined mother of two.  With such a number of successful campaigns that have inspired thousands under her belt, I’m excited to find out what motivates Kelly to be the role model she is.    Here are the highlights  (02:36) The importance of representing disabled people  (06:58) Celebrating our differences on social media  (09:17) Kelly’s upbringing and how it’s shaped her confidence  (13:03) The impact of her campaigns  (17:44) Wanting to be a witch when growing up  (22:53) Her love for Rick Mayall and 90s Leonardo DiCaprio  (25:19) Kelly’s plans for 2022    Find out more about Lucy and listen to more episodes at http://lucygourlay.com
