It has been nearly a month since we launched our first issue of our digital magazine.

A MONTH!!!

What? I swear this year is flying by.

And what a 1st issue it is — we have exclusive interviews with disabled women change makers, Tara Moss, Amy Kavanagh, Kate Stanforth and Hortense Julienne. We have articles on the judicial issues surrounding survivors of domestic violence and what positives, if any, have come out of the pandemic.

We also have our regular features: accessible beauty and fashion, accessible culture, sex and relationships, a finance tracker, artist profiles, personal essays, etc.

Do pop on over to grab your copy right here — Conscious Being Magazine Issue 1. And then let us know what you think, on Twitter or Instagram. Also, you can get a yearly subscription so that you never miss an issue of the magazine — we publish 4 times a year.

(We have also started a book club, check out our insta for more info, and we are also running monthly nurture sessions for writers.)

This magazine, honestly, is my dream magazine. It is what I wish I had had as a young disabled woman growing up, and what I wanted now as a disabled woman in her (very early) forties. It is seeing myself in media, supporting and growing with other disabled women. All of this is why I bit the bullet and just made it. And what I love about having made it is I get to welcome you all along on this journey too.
