About this episode

Calling all advertisers, marketers, small business owners, and autistics! In episode 151 of Beyond Chronic Burnout, we tackle the critical topic of Accessibility Burnout. This form of burnout occurs when individuals are mentally, physically, and emotionally exhausted from navigating their lives without adequate access to the environments, tools, and supplies they need to thrive.


Our guest, Von Harris, an advertising production professional and Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Specialist, shares his personal experiences with burnout and offers invaluable insights for businesses of all sizes.


From managing stress to addressing insomnia, Von provides practical strategies to reduce accessibility burnout and foster a more inclusive environment for all.


Tune in to learn how you can create a more accessible and supportive space while avoiding burnout. 


This episode is part of our 3rd Annual Shine A Light Autistic Advocate Campaign, where conversations are by us and for us all month long. Let's shine a light on the issues that matter most to our community!
