Hi, I’m Peta Hooke
​
I'm an Australian disability advocate and the creator and host of The I Can’t Stand Podcast, a Melbourne based interview podcast focused on disability, lived experience, and culture.
I live with cerebral palsy and use long form conversation to explore disability as part of everyday life, including work, relationships, identity, culture, and representation.
​
I created The I Can’t Stand Podcast to answer the questions people often have about disability, not through simplified explanations or 'inspiration', but through real conversations grounded in lived experience.
​
My lived experience informs conversations across the podcast, which explores disability in Australia through long form interviews spanning many conditions, identities, and experiences.
​
This podcast is for anyone who wants a more honest understanding of disability informed by lived experience.
