Episode 64: Your Difference is Your Superpower: A Conversation with Cerys Davage
In this episode of the Quest Podcast, we chat with Cerys Davage, a Welsh podcaster and content creator living with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD), who has turned her diagnosis into a platform for connection and representation.

She speaks candidly about the ongoing need for greater disability representation, the promising research on the horizon for her specific condition, LGMD2i/R9, and what it has taken to build an independent life — from adaptive driving to the everyday problem-solving that rarely gets seen behind the scenes.
