Grace in Her Skin: Self-Acceptance, Albinism, and Breaking Stereotypes
Description
In this inspiring episode of The Eclectic, host Eloka Oduah sits down with Grace Ochoche, a psychology graduate, model, and young woman with albinism, to explore the power of self-acceptance in navigating stereotypes, stigma, and health challenges.
Grace opens up about her journey to embracing her identity, her passion for modelling, and how self-acceptance has fuelled her resilience against harmful stereotypes. She also sheds light on the unique health concerns faced by persons with albinism, the role of mental health, and the importance of advocacy and education in creating more inclusive communities.
Her story is a reminder that difference is not a limitation but a unique strength.
