This week we are honored to interview actress, writer, producer and director Lena Dunham. Lena cast our son, Liam, in her film SHARP STICK and it was one of the most supportive, inclusive and beautiful experiences we’ve had on this journey. Her set was a model environment for our society and we talk to her about how she developed her advocacy for so many marginalized groups and individuals, what she learned from working with Liam and her future family plans.
Chris joins us again with his parents, Nik and Patty to discuss how they have changed their approach to learning and how that prepared Chris to become the first person with Down syndrome to complete an IRONMAN.
Steven Gustafson is a founding member and bassist of the band 10,000 Maniacs. His sister, Cathy, had Down syndrome and we got a chance to discuss with him the impact she had on his life and the lives around her.
Our enlightening and inspiring interview with Sader Issa. As parents we are always told what our children will never do. What if those limits were not part of the conversation?
This song, "Chromosome", is the theme music for our Down syndrome parenting podcast.
