5 Disabled Creators I Love This Disability Pride Month
I usually share my own lived experience as a disabled creator, but this week I want to share 5 disabled creators I love this Disability Pride Month. I want to shine a light on some of the incredible creators who bring me joy, community and comfort all year round.
To me, Disability Pride Month is about so much more than visibility, it’s also about celebration, connection and refusing to be silenced or erased. It is about honouring the people who make the world feel more accessible, full of possibility and give it just a little hint of magic!
Here are some of the most amazing disabled creators who I love. The people I list here show so much imagination, courage and put in so much time for the community. I really hope they inspire you like they do me, and that you can find the beauty in the work they do this Disability Pride Month, though they are here all year round!
1. Chronically Jenni

Jenni is an absolute beam of light in the chronic illness and disability community, and I have followed her since she was in university. She shares her life with hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (hEDS) with such honesty, humour, and grace. Whether she’s educating about mobility aids, documenting life as a woman trying to run a business, or showing off her amazing fashion sense, Jenni’s content always feels authentic and empowering. Her advocacy helps so many with all her hacks and tips as well as showing that by using aids, we can have an easier life.
2. Fibro Bloggers Directory
This one’s a treasure trove! Fibro Bloggers Directory is a network created for bloggers with fibromyalgia run by an incredible creator who is always shining light on the other members of the community. It’s a brilliant hub for finding supportive voices, shared experiences, and blog posts on everything from pain management to daily life. I’ve discovered so many amazing writers through them, and their commitment to amplifying fibro voices is something I truly admire.
3. A Chronic Voice

Created by Sheryl, A Chronic Voice offers monthly writing prompts for people with chronic illnesses—but it’s so much more than that. The blog is full of deeply reflective, compassionate writing about living with invisible conditions. It encourages storytelling, connection, and self-expression in such a beautiful way. Sheryl’s work is so thought out and detailed that it always blows me away, but more than that she is always sharing out other people’s content. She is supportive and her work is always educational and incredibly written.
4. Brain Lesion and Me
This blog is such a powerful space. Written by Rhiann, Brain Lesion and Me explores life with a rare neurological condition, chronic illness, and invisible disability. Rhiann’s posts are always honest, well-written, and deeply relatable. She covers everything from accessibility issues to personal reflections, and she does it with such heart. Her writing helps build real understanding as well as feeling like an old friend because we have followed one another for such a long time.
5. Finn the Infinncible
[Instagram / YouTube / Website]
Finn is a vibrant, joyful advocate who shares life as a disabled and neurodivergent creator with a brilliant sense of humour and style. From disability activism to mental health discussions, Finn’s posts are always open, honest and courageous. I admire this creator so much for not only teaching me so much about chronic illness but also about being an ally to the trans community. They have written a book about their gender affirming surgery which taught me so much and they are just an incredible person!
Disability Pride Month is a great time to amplify disabled voices—but honestly, we deserve that love and support year-round. If you’re not already following these creators, go check them out and give them some love. Being a disability advocate is a thankless task, and most companies will not partner with us though they will with able bodied creators. This makes it harder to make money for the work they do, so go add subscribe and tell them I sent you
And I’d love to hear from you, too—who are your favourite disabled creators? Drop them in the comments so we can keep uplifting one another!
Thank you xx
