- Ardra and Alex dish with Darcy, Ardra's girlfriend since grade school, about what it's like to re-enter the dating world with progressive MS.
Tripping on Air is a monthly video podcast that brings Ardra Shephard's part-confessional, part-informational blog Tripping on Air to the podcast airwaves! Ardra and co-host Alex Hajjar discuss what it's like to live with MS, from the best products for those with chronic illness, to successfully navigating a disability benefits claim.
Ardra Shephard is a writer, consultant, and speaker, whose award-winning blog Tripping On Air, enjoys an international reach and reputation.
Ardra is the creator and host of AMI-tv's lifestyle series Fashion Dis. Ardra has a regular column with BezzyMS (Ask Ardra Anything), and is a reporter with LivedHealth where she leads informative and educational conversations with leading MS specialists.
Ardra is on a mission to change minds about what it means to live with chronic illness and to have disability positively reflected as part of a diverse society. Accessible bars in Toronto would also be nice.

Thank you so, so much for this! This is the first time I have ever heard dating with progressive MS discussed. It gives me hope - I just need to get a bit braver!
Thanks for watching Jenny. Darcy is a gem and so are you!
This was a great watch!
Single for 4 years now with a 6 year old and I’m at the point in my life where I am finally ready to date and ride this MonSter with my best friend and life partner.
I’m pretty transparent about my MS on my dating profiles. I even joke that my rollater (Rollz named Chariot) is probably cooler than their Grandma’s but she still has a 1 up on me for being able to void without a self cath 🤣
as a 29 y/o this is terrifying. I'm not visibly disabled, but I'm in an "achiever" field. So many rejections from people I would've expected an easy relationship from 2 years ago. its so hard to determine whether a next date is possible. Marriage, breakup after diagnosis, and fetish seems so much easier. It makes sense even if its isolating.
Crips are demanding, but hey, what do I know, I'm a German comedian with schizophrenia MS disease.
