In this first episode of Life and Limb, host Jeff Tiessen chats with Edmonton's Alexis Hillyard.

A teacher by profession, Alexis is a motivator, influencer and a YouTube content creator. She’s incredibly passionate about being her authentic disabled, queer self. She’s a rock climber, musician, mom of two, chef and much more, and she can be unapologetically silly.

Born without her left hand, Alexis knows all about limb difference, and has navigated that on her own terms since she was a child. Many know her from Stump Kitchen, her YouTube show (100 million+ views) that celebrates the unique ways we move through the world. She shares more on that, and the joy she finds in being genuine, and about her love for play.
