Anthony Godfrey: The students are always the best part of our job. [music] Anthony Godfrey: Hello and welcome to the Supercast. I'm your host, Superintendent Anthony Godfrey. Born with cerebral palsy, she has risen above challenges all her life and inspired countless people, friends, family, and even total strangers along the way.

You won't want to miss Aubrey's powerful message. Subtitles and a transcript for this podcast are available on our website. [music] Anthony Godfrey: We are here at Oquirrh Hills Middle School talking with Aubrey Allen. Aubrey, thank you for taking time to talk with us. Aubrey Allen: Thank you so much. I'm excited. Anthony Godfrey: I'm really happy to meet you and talk with you. I think I've met you before, but it's been a little while since we've talked. Aubrey Allen: Yeah. Anthony Godfrey: Tell me about your job here at Oquirrh Hills Middle School. Aubrey Allen: I am a para-educator and one of our special educators. I'm here at Oquirrh Hills, and I love it. Anthony Godfrey: You love being the aide here in the class, the para-professional. Aubrey Allen: Yeah. Yeah. Anthony Godfrey: What do you love most about this job? Aubrey Allen: I love being able to work with and support the kids. The students are definitely the best part of my job. Anthony Godfrey: The students are always the best part of our jobs. Aubrey Allen: Yeah. Anthony Godfrey: That's wonderful. Who's your favorite student? I'm just kidding. I'm not making you say or answer that question. Now you are a highly qualified individual. Tell me about your degrees and the work that you do outside of Oquirrh Hills. Aubrey Allen: Yeah, though I have a bachelor's degree in math, my master's degree is recreational therapy, and now I'm a certified recreational therapist. I also manage a nonprofit called Adaptive Arena, and we offer free adaptive sports and activities for people of all abilities. I love working there, too. Anthony Godfrey: Now I understand that you also are an advocate for those with disabilities on social media. Aubrey Allen: Yeah, yeah. I started a social media platform for the video about my day-to-day life just to try to make others aware of what life can be like having a disability. Anthony Godfrey: For those listening, tell them about your disability. Aubrey Allen: I have cerebral palsy, and I have a moderate case of it. It affects the way I talk. The end is just how my body moves and how my muscles work. Anthony Godfrey: I've heard you're a big inspiration to those around you here at the school. What do you think about that? Aubrey Allen: I just try to be positive and uplift everyone. I think having my disability has given me a lot of pushback. There are a lot of things in life that are challenging for everyone, and you can either let them know who you are or try your best to write about your challenges and just be happy and positive. Anthony Godfrey: You're a great example of rising above your challenges, and I'm sure that your students really look to you for that positivity. I've only met you a couple of times, but you've been extremely positive. You light up, you're so friendly both times, and you really stand out that way. So I appreciate the positivity and the positivity you're bringing into the lives of the students and the people you work with. Aubrey Allen: That means so much to me. I really do try my best to overcome my challenges. Anthony Godfrey: So tell me more about what happens at the Adaptive Arena. Aubrey Allen: Yeah, it's more like a rec center for people with disabilities. We offer different activities. We have a cheer program and a wheelchair basketball program, and the cool thing about us is we let everyone play. So if somebody in a wheelchair has a brother who is not in a wheelchair, we put the brother in a wheelchair, too, and now they can play wheelchair basketball, or whatever together, and families really like that because typically kids with disabilities can't play on the same team as their siblings otherwise. So I just love that we can do well with different types of families and kids with all different abilities. Anthony Godfrey: So it really is inclusive. Anyone can participate. Aubrey Allen: Yeah. Yeah. Anthony Godfrey: And if you are playing with others who are in a wheelchair and you don't need a wheelchair, you're going to get a wheelchair. Aubrey Allen: Yes, yes. Anthony Godfrey: That seems fair. Now what is your favorite sport? I won't make you tell me who your favorite student is, but what's your favorite sport? Aubrey Allen: I think my favorite is wheelchair basketball because everyone gets so into it. Anthony Godfrey: Yeah, it's fast-paced. Aubrey Allen: Yeah, we do wheelchair basketball every Saturday morning, and we just have a blast. Anthony Godfrey: So it's your favorite and everyone else's also. [music] Anthony Godfrey: Stay with us when we come back. More with Aubrey Allen and her colleagues.

[music] Female Voice: They are out on the job in the rain, sleet, snow, ice, and in the sunshine, as Jordan School District students navigate their way to and from school every day. We are truly grateful for our city crossing guards, always vigilant and looking out for students to ensure everyone's safety. Because they work so hard protecting our kids, let's give those crossing guards a hand. If you're driving near or around schools, slow down, pay attention, watch for students and staff, and follow instructions from the school crossing guards and know our cities are always looking to hire crossing guards. If you like kids and need some flexible hours, contact your local city and apply to be a crossing guard today. Together, let's make this a safe and successful school year. Anthony Godfrey: What advice do you have for folks about how to make sure that people with disabilities in their lives feel included and noticed and a part of things? Aubrey Allen: Yes, that's a great question. I remember when I was growing up and it was so easy to feel invisible because I had a disability. The people that stood out to me the most and that had the most impact on my life are the people who treated me like they were just anybody else and not only that, but they were comfortable talking to me and asking what I needed and if they should be aware of anything. So I think that is very important. Individual people do know that people with disabilities, they often times know they just want to be treated and included like everyone else. Anthony Godfrey: I love that. Just treat them like you treat everyone else. And I love that you said the people that have had an impact on your life are the ones who said, "How can I help you?" And just treated you like everyone else, asked you questions, and talked with you. Aubrey Allen: Yeah. Anthony Godfrey: Let's talk with some of the folks that you work with. Introduce yourself. Kathy Taylor: Hi, I'm Kathy Taylor and I am the teacher of the classroom that Aubrey is working in right now and we love Aubrey. She brings so much to our class. Anthony Godfrey: Tell me what it's like getting to work with Aubrey day in and day out. Kathy Taylor: Well, she's always positive. Anthony Godfrey: That's obvious. That's obvious. Kathy Taylor: Even when sometimes it doesn't feel like it's a positive day. Some days are up and some days are down, but Aubrey is always up. Aubrey's expertise with the recreational therapy has been great. We are a Unified Sports school meaning . . . Anthony Godfrey: You're a premier Unified Sports school. You're an award-winning Unified Sports school. Talk about that. Kathy Taylor: So Unified Sports is a program with Special Olympics where we are participating in team sports with our students that have disabilities and with their peers. Peers and our students with disabilities all play on the same team. And for us, that's a huge deal because a lot of times our students are not on teams. Or parents, they go and watch a lot of sibling games, or they watch a lot of their friends play sports. But a lot of our kids don't play sports on their own. So this gives them the opportunity to be on a team, to get that camaraderie, feel like what competition is like, feel experience at the tournament. And Aubrey has brought so much to that. She is our coach basically. I don't know if you've gone through all the trainings yet. I'm still working on those, too. But our official coaches, hands down Aubrey is amazing in that capacity with the sports. She is helping us with warm-ups. She's helping us design activities to do during our practice times that will help us work on specific skills. And she's able to adapt things for the kids that aren't able to do what everybody else does, and they can still interact with their peers. So it's been amazing having Aubrey, but not just for sports because she helps with academics. She goes to classes with kids. She helps us with their personal care. She does it all. She does it all, and she does it with grace, and she does it with humor, and she is a pleasure to work with. Anthony Godfrey: I would think it's pretty hard to be negative around Aubrey or be down on yourself. She doesn't let that happen. The incandescence keeps everyone from getting off the path, I guess. Kathy Taylor: She's very positive and the kids have responded really well to her. They really enjoy her. Anthony Godfrey: Let's talk with the principal. Introduce yourself and tell us about Aubrey. You contacted me and let me know that we really ought to come talk with her. Lisa Jackson: I did. I did. I'm Lisa Jackson, Oquirrh Hills principal. When we interviewed Aubrey, after Aubrey left the room, we all looked at each other and said, "How can we make this work because she needs to be part of our team here at Oquirrh Hills.” When we called for her references at the Adaptive Arena, they said the same thing, “She's amazing. Everything she does. She's just highly qualified. She's kind. She's motivated.” I interact with Aubrey in the halls a lot because she's walking these kids to and from class, and she understands what they need. She's receptive to their needs. And I think the coolest thing about it is just having our kiddos who do have disabilities, who have some struggles, being able to see just what they can accomplish in life and how successful they can be. And I think seeing Aubrey every day and seeing how successful she is just gives them motivation to follow in her footsteps and do some of the things she's done. Anthony Godfrey: You're not very convincing when you say you can't do it and Aubrey's in the room and she's bringing the energy and demonstrating that “yes, you can. You absolutely can.” Lisa Jackson: You can do it with a smile. Anthony Godfrey: Right. Lisa Jackson: Right. It might be hard, but you can do it. I think she also inspires all of the kids, though. Like, I feel like they didn't necessarily know, even our peer tutors didn't know what to expect when you meet Aubrey and you're not sure, you've never met Aubrey before. You're not sure. A lot of people don't have experience with somebody that has cerebral palsy. And so it's been great. I think it's an inspiration to them, too, because you're knowledgeable. You're educated. You're well spoken. And when you say they need to do something, you mean business. So, like, it's, you know, there's a level of respect that Aubrey has earned among all the kids and the adults, really. Anthony Godfrey: I'm inspired hearing about what you do and meeting you again. What do you like to do when you're not at the Adaptive Arena or here at school? Aubrey Allen: Oh, man. I spent a lot of time with my family. I have two younger brothers who I helped raise because there's a big age gap between them. There are things that my family and I work out every day. So I'm at the gym a lot. I feel like and then I like to hike and bike and just be outside. Anthony Godfrey: You're very active sounds like. Aubrey Allen: Yeah. Anthony Godrey: I sit in a lot of meetings. I do email. But, you know, I try to get as much pleasure from that as I can. [laughing] Anthony Godfrey: Well, it's a real pleasure meeting you. Thank you for everything you're doing, for inspiring me, the people that you work with and the students that you serve. You're awesome. Thank you. Aubrey Allen: Thank you for your time and opportunity. Anthony Godfrey: Thank you. And thank you both for talking with us. [music] Anthony Godfrey: Thanks for joining us on another episode of the Supercast. Remember, “Education is the most important thing you will do today!” We'll see you out there. [music]

Join Sandra for one of the most unique and inspiring interviews in the history of We Don't Die Radio. Rosemary Musachio was born with cerebral palsy and is non-verbal, meaning she has never spoken a word in the traditional sense. But that hasn't stopped her from meeting the Pope, riding in a motorcycle sidecar, hang-gliding at 5,000 feet, or training to become an evidential medium. Using a head-pointer and voice synthesis technology, Rosemary shares her incredible journey from a fearful child to a fearless woman. She opens up about the loss of her soulmate, Mylan, and the undeniable sign he sent her from the afterlife—physically moving her locked wheelchair across the room! She also discusses her training as a medium (using a word board to convey messages), her philosophy on overcoming limitations, and shares breathtaking poetry from her new book, Soul of a Rose.

In this episode of Life Beyond The Mic, Shawna and LaLa talk about why they're stepping away from one-size-fits-all, textbook medicine and embracing a more holistic, individualized approach to healthcare, all while preparing for the snowstorm of the century.  They open up about medical gaslighting, being dismissed by doctors, and the importance of doing your own research, bringing case studies to appointments, and getting second (and third) opinions. Both share moments when doctors didn't listen, and how they were right all along.  LaLa discusses the devastating reality of medical negligence and how her colon ruptured after five doctors failed to take her symptoms seriously.Shawna also shares a major update: after 36 years of unanswered questions, she recently met with a genetics doctor who may finally have answers related to her Cerebral Palsy and other long-standing health issues that have gone unexplained for decades.  This episode is a reminder that patient advocacy saves lives, holistic health looks at the whole person, and you are allowed to push for answers, even when the system makes it hard.

Send us a textBrent and Kyle's story is rooted in life-shaping experiences that led them to become who they are today.Kyle was born with cerebral palsy, leaving him with full cognitive ability but very limited physical mobility. He lives life in a wheelchair and requires assistance with daily tasks like eating. Brent is Kyle's older brother, and they grew up in a household where their family never accepted limitations on what was possible for Kyle.Today, Brent acts as Kyle's legs so Kyle can compete in some of the world's most challenging endurance events — including the IRONMAN World Championship (140.6 miles) and the Boston Marathon among several others. Not only are they completing these races as a push-assist duo, they've also raised millions through The Kyle Pease Foundation to give other individuals with disabilities the chance to experience their own finish-line moments. Their efforts also support inclusive employment opportunities for people with disabilities who, like Kyle, deserve meaningful roles and visibility.We had a great conversation and you will love this inspiring episode!

There was no one within my family, at work, at church or within my friend group who understood or could relate to what I was going through."SFN Mentor Fathers share their experiences with younger dads closer to the beginning of their journey raising a child with the same or similar special needs. The SFN Mentor Fathers do NOT offer legal or medical advice, that is what lawyers and doctors do.

The Unseen Sibling: Rebecca Robinson's Journey Through Love, Loss, and HopeRebecca Robinson grew up in a home marked by both deep love and quiet sacrifice. Her older sister, Kara, was born with severe Cerebral Palsy. From the beginning, Kara required round-the-clock care, medical equipment, and endless patience — needs her parents met with unwavering devotion and compassion. Their home was filled with the tenderness of a family bound together by something far stronger than circumstance: love.But amid the visible weight her parents carried, Rebecca faced an invisible burden of her own. As the younger sibling, she often felt the pressure to be “the easy one.” She learned not to complain, not to need too much, and not to add stress to her already overwhelmed parents. This quiet phenomenon, known as Glass Child Syndrome, left Rebecca feeling transparent.“I didn't want to be a burden,” she shared in a recent episode of the Cedarville Stories podcast. “My parents were doing everything they could for Kara. I just didn't want to take up more space.”Now a 2025 graduate of Cedarville University, Rebecca has taken her story and transformed it into a gift for others. Her children's book, Penelope Panda's Peculiar Family, gives voice to the complex emotions that siblings of children with disabilities often experience — grief, love, confusion, and resilience. With warmth and whimsy, it helps families talk about what often goes unsaid.Rebecca's heart for ministry doesn't stop at home. Her book is being translated into Japanese to address a culture where disabilities often remain hidden in silence. She hopes it will open doors for compassion, healing, and Gospel conversations.Though Kara has since passed, Rebecca holds fast to her faith. “She's with Christ now,” she says. “And while my past shaped me, my identity is in the hope of what's to come.”From the quiet corners of her childhood to the global impact of her words, Rebecca's story is one of grace woven through pain — a light shining through even the most delicate glass.https://share.transistor.fm/s/4fb72e3ehttps://youtu.be/StvgyN4CC2U

Beyond Coping: Radical Healing in a World Not Built for Us – An Interview with José Rosario Curt and Katie chat with José Rosario about radical healing, disability, cultural trauma, and intersectionality. José shares his story as a scholar, practitioner, and activist, and how his lived experience as a disabled person of color who is also queer informs both his clinical work and research. He discusses how healing must move beyond coping, the importance of community engagement, and how therapists can better support clients with marginalized identities. About Our Guest: José Rosario Born to young Puerto Rican parents, José Rosario developed Cerebral Palsy as a premature baby. His family's journey towards equity deeply impacted his mental health. Currently nearing his PhD in Clinical Psychology, his research focuses on cultural trauma in intersectional communities. He is an Interdisciplinary Minority Fellow for the American Psychological Association, member of the Congressional Diversity and Equality Advisory Board for Congressman James Langevin, and member of the Rhode Island Attorney General Community Advisory Board. He has been honored with the Chris Martin Humanitarian Award and the Victoria Lederberg Award for Excellence in Psychology. Key Takeaways for Therapists Radical healing means moving beyond coping to systemic change and community-based healing. Disability, race, and queerness intersect in ways that compound stigma and systemic barriers. Community is both a source of hope and a vital element of healing. Therapists must step outside the therapy room and engage genuinely with the communities they serve.

Stepping away from our studio setting, we're bringing you a special "speedcast" from the bustling Abilities Expo in Chicago where we met Mikaylah, a remarkable young woman navigating life with dystonic cerebral palsy while pursuing her dreams.Mikaylah, a creative writing major at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, offers a candid glimpse into her world. She manages her condition with a deep brain stimulator (a device similar to a pacemaker but connected to her brain) and medication regimens. What stands out immediately is her matter-of-fact approach to these medical realities – they're simply part of her daily experience, not limitations that define her potential.When our conversation turns to literature, Mikaylah's passion ignites. She recommends "Unmasked" by Kendra Merritt, praising how the author authentically incorporates disability into fantasy fiction. This representation matters deeply to Mikaylah's, who notes the scarcity of disabled characters in the books she encountered growing up. Now, she's crafting her own stories, adding her voice to this essential narrative space. The most revealing moment comes when she shares a troubling high school incident – administrators placed her service dog's photo on her student ID instead of her own picture, a dehumanizing error that speaks volumes about how society often fails to see disabled individuals as complete persons.Michaela's parting wisdom resonates deeply: "Just keep living. Life goes on. Life is precious. You only get one."

You don't survive ten years of podcasting without a few scars—and a hell of a lot of stories. In part one of this milestone episode, the guys sit down with Brock, a new intern with a fiery past—literally. From being wrongly accused of arson at age four to navigating life with cerebral palsy, Brock's journey is as hilarious as it is jaw-dropping. He unpacks what it means to live with PVL, how systemic failures nearly derailed his education, and why he wouldn't trade his disability for anything. Then in part two, the hosts turn the mics inward. Reflecting on a decade of Sickboy, they revisit the biggest lessons, most surprising moments, and the impact this show has had—not just on listeners, but on themselves.
