Episode Notes

On E427, Andrew is joined by queer, disabled content creator, author, and motivational speaker Spencer West. They dive into Spencer's brand-new book, Breaking Free: Stop Following Expectations and Start Following Yourself, and reflect on the life lessons Spencer has learned over the last two decades. From navigating the world with sacral agenesis to climbing Mount Kilimanjaro, Spencer shares his journey of living authentically.

They also gets incredibly candid about the everyday realities of being queer and disabled. They discuss the frustration of inaccessible gay clubs, the ableism prevalent on dating apps, and the dire need for authentic representation in media. Plus, they shoot their shot with Heated Rivalry creator Jacob Tierney and so much more! Enjoy!
