Agust Kristjan Steinarrsson: Pushing the limits to get his life back

Épisode 33

dimanche 16 novembre 2025 • Durée 43:28

Send us a text

In this episode, Steve talks with Agust who lives in Iceland. Our guest has had 2 serious conditions: Ostomy care and bouts of manic episodes. He's had a very challenging life as he was affected with manic episodes when he was 19 years old. He also dealt with colitis and cancer, which led to the removal of his colon and getting an ostomy. He is an avid mountaineer and leads an active outdoor lifestyle. The news of his health challenges was very difficult. To help in his healing process, he started to move and get back to the outdoors - which turned out to be a very positive motivation for him. He found a supportive network in the ostomy community which gave him life and opportunities. His manic condition at 19 manifested itself in bizarre beliefs of something powerful. He struggled with institutions and medication, but he finally found positive care and was ready to heal and become whole again. He is very open about his struggles, which he wrote a book about based on his own life. His story is his strength.

This was just about the time of the Covid pandemic, which changed everything as we know, regarding in person and virtual appointments in medicine. Tristan also talks about the evolution of Diabetes devices and monitors, Insulin pumps, and new medications. He explains the difference between Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes: symptoms, conditions and treatments. You can visit BC Diabetes with a referral from a health care professional.

Steve and Chris together have a great discussion with Paul Gauthier in regards to him as the founder of the CSIL program (Choice in Supports for Independent Living) They also discuss his involvement with his other significant initiatives that make Paul such a prominent and influential individual in the disabled community. He was born with Cerebral Palsy. As a young person, he grew up in foster care. When he turned 19, he decided that he didn’t want to live in a care facility, but he wanted to live independently.

He is currently the Executive Director of the IFRC (Individualized Funding Resource Centre). Under this umbrella are many other programs to help the disabled community with independence, resources, wellbeing, and support. Paul and Steve talk about these other programs, and we learn a lot about Paul including: his previous Paralympic accolades, his numerous awards, and the great work that he continues to pursue. As you listen, you will recognize the passion that Paul has brought to these extraordinary endeavors.

She is also legally blind, as well as neurodivergent, and she experiences chronic pain from Gastropareses - nerve damage in the stomach. Her Type 1 diabetes rendered her into a coma and when she emerged from that experience, she was diagnosed with diabetic retinopathy, which caused her to become legally blind. None the less, she navigates through her life with positivity, passion and purpose. Amy gets a lot of joy from creating her own work, her current project is entitled: Through my Lens, where she takes her own pictures by finding the 'light' - without actually seeing the images of her own photos.

Michelle Hewitt: 'I try to use the time I have available each day to help others'

Épisode 20

Send us a text

Steve talks with Michelle Hewitt from Kelowna, current Board Chair of Disability without Poverty, a non profit organization. A former public school principal, Michelle was diagnosed with aggressive multiple sclerosis in her early 40s, and is a full time power wheelchair user. Fatigue limits the amount of time she spends out of bed each day to less than 8 hours. “We have a large chunk of disabled people who already live in poverty, and a large chunk of disabled people who are very close to living in poverty,” Michelle says. “This shouldn’t be happening in Canada.” She says it’s important that the Canada Disability Benefit is designed by people who live with disabilities and know how it could improve their lives. The benefit is “the first step” to improving the financial situation for Canadians with disabilities. In addition to being the chair of the board of DWP, Michelle volunteers on local and provincial disability committees. She is a PhD candidate at UBC-O, where her research focuses on younger disabled adults who have no other option than to live in long-term care institutions. As if she doesn't have enough on her resume, she also co-hosts a podcast, Disability with Possibility.

Penn & Moses Street: “Be gentle with your words, sometimes that’s all that someone can see”

Épisode 16

dimanche 6 avril 2025 • Durée 56:39

Send us a text

In this episode, Steven and Chris talk with Penn and Moses Street from Colorado. Penn became blind as a young child from a rattlesnake bite, developing Stevens-Johnson Syndrome. Her family of 12 moved to Colorado from Arkansas because Penn could get better care from the children’s hospital in that area. Penn had a tomboy spirit, and refused to accept that she couldn’t do something as a visually impaired youngster. Fast forward many years later, and she met the love of her life – Moses Street, a professional photographer. Today, they live life to the fullest by travelling, spending time in the great outdoors, and working for Aftersight; a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing audio access to print information and empowering services for the blind and low vision community. They also host a podcast together, called 'The Blind Chick', doing great on the Aftersight network among other podcasts focusing on low or non vision hosts and guests. We had a lot of laughs on this episode, not even sure how we got off topic (many times), but we hope that you will enjoy listening to this lively episode. Go to Aftersight.org to find all of their podcast offerings.
