Moon Soldier is proud to feature YazzieTalks, an inspiring individual and our esteemed brand ambassador, who embodies courage, resilience, and the spirit of advocacy. YazzieTalks has been navigating life with multiple sclerosis (MS) since 2017, a journey she bravely shares with her community, offering hope and guidance.
Her experience in the TV industry reveals the challenges faced by individuals with invisible disabilities. Yazzie’s candid discussions about the cut-throat nature of the industry, the need for breaks due to her MS, and the discrimination she faced, highlight an often overlooked reality. Her revelation of being discriminated against in a previous contract is a poignant reminder of the subtle ways disability prejudice manifests.
Despite facing these challenges, YazzieTalks’ spirit remains unbroken. Her story is not just about the struggles but also about finding strength and a voice. Launching her Instagram page, Yazzie Talks, she has created a vibrant space for raising awareness about MS, reaching out to those newly diagnosed, and building a community of support and understanding.
Her impact goes beyond those with MS, connecting with individuals facing various health challenges, from Crohn’s to fibromyalgia. Yazzie's approach is realistic yet optimistic, offering practical advice while emphasising the uniqueness of each person's journey with MS.
YazzieTalks represents the values Moon Soldier stands for – authenticity, strength, and community... Oh and she's vegan! Her journey is a beacon of hope and a call to action for more inclusive and understanding environments, both in the workplace and society. We are honoured to have her as part of the Moon Soldier family, to strive to make a positive impact in the world.
