Allison Baggott-Rowe

Award-Winning Author | Disability Advocate | TEDx Speaker | Writing in liminal spaces about taboo spaces. Allison’s work often features liminal spaces.

Allison Baggott-Rowe is an International Award-winning author with disabilities hoping to build worlds that challenge and inspire readers to consider our place on the planet, especially in a world that can be challenging for disabled/chronically ill individuals to inhabit. She is one of Marquis “Who’s Who in America 2024” and delivered a TEDx talk on overcoming medical adversity in 2018, entitled

"A Fall Does Not Define You, But How You Rise Will Redefine You." Her previous short stories and personal essays have been featured in several acclaimed works, including the 2023 international bestselling anthology "You Can, You Will." She also contributed the winning piece for Inked in Gray's 2022 anthology contest, We Deserve to Exist. Allison possesses a wealth of creative experiences, including performing as an aerialist for “Cirque,” defending the title of a Top 100 USCF competitive female chess player in the United States, and receiving national medals for excellence in Irish Music performance. In 2024, she won Harvard University's Judith Wood Prize upon graduation for being a student who advocates for disability access on the heels of receiving the Swarthmore Book Award. When not writing from her favorite perch on the couch, Allison enjoys taking her dogs (Samwise and Rosie) to the park, embarking on adventures with her husband into the wilds of Ohio, and playing enchanting tabletop board games. She also has a pesky habit of diving into any body of water she finds, from the lap lane in the gym pool to the Aegean Sea.

There’s a gap between what patients experience and what providers are trained to see.
Most of us aren’t asking for perfection.
We’re asking to be heard. To be believed. To be met with curiosity instead of dismissal. When that happens, care changes. When that happens…you can change the world.
This is something I explore deeply in Beyond Exhaustion—and something I hope continues to shift in meaningful ways.
If you’re in healthcare, I’m so glad you’re here. 💜

These numbers aren’t abstract. They’re lived.

Thousands of finger pricks. Hundreds of injections. Constant site changes.

This is what managing Type 1 diabetes actually looks like over time.

It’s not just “checking your sugar.”
 It’s a lifetime of decisions, calculations, and resilience.

28 years today—and still going. 💜

There’s a reason this book exists. And it’s not because I had everything figured out. It’s because I was trying to understand how to live in a body that didn’t follow the rules I had been taught.

At the same time, I was shaped by someone who believed deeply in showing up for others—my dad.

He was a physician, but more than anything, he cared about teaching. About helping people learn how to think, how to care, how to be present with the person in front of them.

That perspective stayed with me even after my dad passed away.

Beyond Exhaustion sits somewhere in the middle of those two experiences— learning how to live with limits, and wanting the world to better understand how to support the people living within them.

I’m really grateful to be able to share it. 💜

There’s a lot of advice out there about chronic illness.

But not all of it actually helps.

For people living with energy-limiting conditions, support often looks quieter, more flexible, and more intentional than most people expect.

It’s not about pushing harder. It’s about understanding limits—and working within them.

This is something I explore deeply in Beyond Exhaustion, and it’s a conversation I care deeply about changing.

What’s something that has actually helped you (or someone you love)? 💜

Living with limited energy isn’t just about being tired.

It’s about constantly navigating trade-offs that most people never have to think about.

It’s doing invisible math. It’s adjusting expectations. It’s building a life differently.✨

And for a long time, I didn’t have language for that.

That’s part of why I wrote Beyond Exhaustion—to help name these experiences and make space for them.

If this resonates with you, or someone you care about, I see you. I’m here for you.💜

Ever wanted a firsthand account of the WHOLE Alan Turing story? This is the audiobook for you! We gobbled it up during a recent roadtrip and are still spellbound at what his colleague was able to capture in this work! What are you reading right now?

Navigating a new (and fast-paced!) city with manual wheels can be a stretch sometimes. I am so grateful to have a partner and caregiver who knows when and how to help so we could have the time of our lives in NYC!👩‍🦽🏃

Sometimes all you need is one extra layer—like a bright orange pashmina on a cool morning by the river. Travel reminds me that comfort can come from the smallest details we bring from home. Sensory details—texture, warmth, color—bring writing to life.
