Infinite Voices Carry On We aim to foster diversity, inclusion, and genuine connections. Our goal with this podcast is to provide a place for everyone's voice to be heard and validated.

Our mission is to give everyone a voice--whether you have a disability or not--and to create a safe, welcoming space where topics of concern can be discussed openly. "Infinite Voices Carry On," a podcast, focuses on the inclusion of people with all types of disabilities, whether they are visible or invisible to the human eye And the ones around us. Please join us in our life mission as we explore various topics of interest and how each situation, although challenging for each individual, can unite with similar experiences and express multiple viewpoints as we navigate the triumphs and tribulations that each of us faces living with various disabilities.

"It is not our fault that we were born with a disability—and we refuse to apologize for needing assistance to live."

When you live with a disability, navigating physical barriers is only half the battle. The heavier weight often comes from managing the guilt, judgment, or impatience projected by people who are supposed to show up for you—whether that is extended family or personal care attendants.

In our latest community letter, Infinite Voices Carry On (IVCO) co-founder Lisandra Rivera Vargas speaks directly on:

Why asking for daily care routines or room temperature adjustments is basic survival, not "asking for too much."

How the direct care workforce shortage and systemic neglect impact disabled adults' mental fortitude.

Why disabled family members are not burdens or inconveniences, but human beings worthy of love, dignity, and respect.

We do not need empty pity. We need accountability, reliable support systems, and active compassion.

Hey everyone,
Thank you for being the heartbeat of Infinite Voices Carry On. Your ongoing support means the world to me, and today, I want to share a deeply personal evolution with you all. Moving forward, I will be stepping into my advocacy and creative work under the stage name Emery Mar.
I want to be clear: this isn't a rejection of my past, but a necessary step into a persona that truly embodies my core beliefs. For those who know me as Lisandra Rivera Vargas, I want to share exactly why this new name is so deeply connected to who I am and what we stand for.
Here is the significance behind the change:
Honoring Lisandra: My birth name, Lisandra, translates to "defender of mankind" or "liberator". It carries an inherent weight of advocacy, protection, and action.
The Foundation of Emery: The name Emery means "industrious leader". Both names completely reject passivity. The industrious leadership of Emery perfectly supports the protective advocacy of Lisandra.
The Power of Mar: Mar is the Spanish and Latin word for the sea. While it represents defense and drive, I ultimately chose it because "Mar" reflects my tropical roots of Puerto Rico and my deep, profound love and astonishment with the sea. To me, it is a symbol of freedom. I don't need to physically be able to walk to be free in the ocean, whether physically, mentally, or spiritually.
Together, Emery Mar conceptually translates to "industrious leader of the sea". It physically translates the astrology into a stage name that embodies a water-based defender. When placed side by side, these names form a highly cohesive partnership. One draws power from the environment, while the other applies power to human rights and protection.
What This Means for Us
Practically speaking, I'd love for you to refer to me as Emery Mar going forward in conversations, social media tags, and introductions. However, I want to clarify that our community may still refer to me as Lisandra. The name change to Emery Mar simply embodies how I feel completely.
Some of you have also known me as Summer Moon. That name will always hold a warm place in my heart and soul for personal reasons and memories. But I feel it doesn't reflect much of my real identity, my truth, or Lisandra's identity, thoughts, or beliefs.
As a group, Infinite Voices Carry On fully embodies this change and looks forward to representing us. We view Lisandra or Emery Mar as a positive step in the right direction toward embracing who we are and how our community feels about itself and each other.
Please know that my dedication to our community hasn't changed—it has only deepened. Our philosophy of "Mental Fortitude" remains the same: disability is a terrain to be navigated with strength and support, not just a medical condition to be treated. We validate all struggles, whether physical or mental.
Thank you for riding out this journey with me, avoiding "inspiration p**n" and focusing on real struggle and resilience. Let's embrace this next chapter together.
With love and fierce solidarity,
Emery Mar

We don't just celebrate women today—we fiercely advocate for the disabled women whose voices have been historically silenced. Here is why our fight for equity cannot wait.
​Happy International Women's Day from all of us at Infinite Voices Carry On (IVCO).
​This day is profoundly important for people all around the world, serving as a powerful reminder of the resilience, mental fortitude, and brilliance of women everywhere. But in our "brave space," we must also acknowledge a hard truth: the global fight for women's rights is entirely incomplete if it doesn't explicitly include those navigating life with both visible and invisible disabilities.
​As a proud team member of Infinite Voices Carry On, I am deeply honored to help carry on the mission of true, uncompromised inclusion. Every day, whether through our Disability Advocacy Podcast or our Mental Health Support initiatives, we witness the radical power of disabled women advocating for systemic change and equal access. Your life navigation matters. Your stories matter. We are here to ensure those voices are amplified, not spoken over.
​On a deeply personal note for our community: Today, March 8th, holds an extra layer of beautiful meaning. We are celebrating Lisandra on her birthday and all that she has accomplished thus far! We wish her many more years and many more accomplishments, both personal and professional, for many years to come. Photos to follow from her Summer Moon birthday celebration. Coming soon! 🌕✨

🛑 Is the freezing weather making your body and brain hit an absolute wall today? You're not the only one.

Right now, it’s a snowy, under-30-degree day here in Massachusetts. Our very own Lisandra Summer Moon is watching the snowfall and actively reminiscing about the beautiful, warm breezes of Puerto Rico—channeling all the island vibes to get through the chill. 🌴❄️

But let’s be real for a second here at Infinite Voices Carry On (IVCO). For the disability community, winter isn't just about missing the beach. It’s a genuine, daily test of Mental Fortitude and Life Navigation.

Whether you're dealing with a visible disability (like navigating a mobility aid through unshoveled, icy sidewalks) or an invisible one (like temperature dysregulation, chronic joint pain triggered by the cold drops, or the mental health hurdles of seasonal depression), this weather takes a massive toll.

We hold a brave space for that reality. You are allowed to be frustrated by the snow, and you are allowed to dream of the sun. Our goal with the Infinite Voices Carry On Disability Advocacy Podcast is to bring these everyday environmental impacts out of the shadows and into the light.

Let’s get a community discussion going:

How is everyone else doing on this beautiful (but freezing!) day?

What are your best life navigation hacks for managing chronic pain, mobility, or mental health support during the winter?

If you could teleport anywhere warm right now, where are you going?

👇 Drop your winter survival tips or your dream warm-weather destinations in the comments. Let's share some warmth today.
