Crown Collective 👑: A Conversation with Selena B.

Wednesday, March 25, 2026 • Duration 20:23

Description: In this minisode of Accessibly Ever After, we’re joined by Selena, an occupational therapist and doctoral student specializing in accessibility in the beauty industry. Selena shares her journey through a non-traditional OT path and how her clinical perspective intersects with beauty, product design, and disability advocacy. Together, we explore the real gaps in accessible beauty products, from packaging and usability to representation in marketing and brand messaging.

We dive into why accessible beauty is not a niche, but a necessity, especially for disabled, chronically ill, and neurodivergent consumers who are often overlooked in product development. Selena breaks down how occupational therapy principles like ergonomics, fine motor support, and energy conservation can directly inform more inclusive beauty design. We also talk about the role OTs can play in consulting with brands, improving accessibility standards, and advocating for more inclusive systems across the beauty industry.

If you care about accessible beauty, inclusive product design, disability representation, and the future of beauty innovation, this episode is for you. Whether you’re a beauty lover, content creator, occupational therapist, or brand professional, this conversation offers practical insights and a fresh perspective on how we can build a more inclusive beauty space.
