Podcasts about Down syndrome

When ⁠Misty Coy Snyder ⁠received a prenatal Down syndrome diagnosis during the early days of the pandemic, fear and uncertainty shaped much of her pregnancy. But when her son Jed was born, the joy she experienced changed everything—and eventually inspired the community known as Happiness Is Down Syndrome.Misty returns to the podcast to talk about her new book, ⁠Happiness Is Down Syndrome: Strategies and Support for Parents at Every Stage. ⁠Designed as a practical companion for families, the book brings together personal stories, expert guidance, helpful resources, and the voices of people with Down syndrome. It covers everything from diagnosis, grief, and early intervention to IEPs, inclusion, advocacy, sibling relationships, and adulthood.Misty and Heather discuss holding grief and joy at the same time, taking each season as it comes, and why parents don't need to figure everything out alone. They also explore what “happiness is Down syndrome” really means—not a life without difficulty, but a life filled with deep connection, ordinary joys, and unexpected goodness.This is an encouraging conversation for parents, educators, extended family, and anyone who loves someone with Down syndrome.Show Notes: Learn more about Misty at ⁠MistyCoySnyder.com⁠Follow Misty ⁠@MistyCoySnyder ⁠ Follow ⁠@HappinessIsDownSyndrome⁠ --------------------------------------------Thank You to Our SponsorsDown For Greens creates practitioner-formulated, third-party-tested greens specifically designed with the nutritional needs of the Down syndrome community in mind.Learn more: ⁠https://downforgreens.co⁠ Promo code: LUCKY — get 50% off your first order.ENABLE Special Needs Planning helps families create coordinated plans for the future by bringing together the vision, financial, legal, and practical pieces of special needs planning.Free resource: Who Will Carry What?

Downs syndrome, or is it Down Syndrome?.. Either way we have questions Honestly forgot what we did here, but it wasn't what we were gonna do lol Headlines

Back-to-school season can bring a lot more than new backpacks, school supplies, and first-day photos—especially when you're raising a child with Down syndrome.In this episode, Heather, Micha, and Mercedes talk honestly about the complicated feelings that come with starting a new school year. From new teachers and IEP meetings to inclusion, friendships, behaviors, and the pressure to make sure our kids have the opportunities they deserve, sometimes “back-to-school anxiety” is really a mix of fear, grief, frustration, comparison, and the exhaustion of knowing how much advocacy may be ahead.Micha shares about preparing for Ace's transition to middle school and advocating for the movement and sensory support his body needs to learn—and even to sleep. Mercedes opens up about the unexpected pressure she feels as Sunflower enters seventh grade and the milestones she thought they might have reached by now. And Heather shares the weight of sending Macyn into her senior year after an incredibly difficult school experience, while still fighting for something every student deserves: to be a meaningful part of their school community.They also talk about the comparison trap—especially when social media makes it look like everyone else's child is having the school experience you hoped your child would have—and the reminder that we rarely know the whole story.But this conversation isn't about pretending everything will be fine. It's about making room for the hard while still holding onto hope.Maybe we don't need to have everything figured out before the first day. Maybe we can simplify our goals. Maybe instead of measuring a successful year by achievement, we can ask:Is my child known?Do they have a friend?Are they included?Do they know they belong?And when the world outside our homes doesn't always get inclusion right, we can still create homes where our kids know without question that they are valued, adored, and that they belong.Why back-to-school season can bring unique anxiety for families raising kids with Down syndrome, including emotions like grief, comparison, and uncertaintyReal-life transitions and advocacy: new school years, changing grades, and supporting sensory, social, and inclusion needsReframing success and belonging by focusing on inclusion, self-worth, and creating supportive, radically inclusive home environmentsYou don't have to have everything figured out before the first day.You can change course when something isn't working. You can ask questions. You can advocate. You can feel nervous. And you can hope for a good year without pretending that some parts of it may be hard.Your child's worth is not measured by their progress.Here's to a school year where our kids aren't simply present—but known, valued, included, and loved.--------------------------------------------Thank You to Our SponsorsDown For Greens creates practitioner-formulated, third-party-tested greens specifically designed with the nutritional needs of the Down syndrome community in mind.Learn more: ⁠https://downforgreens.co⁠ Promo code: LUCKY — get 50% off your first order.--------------------------------------------ENABLE Special Needs Planning helps families create coordinated plans for the future by bringing together the vision, financial, legal, and practical pieces of special needs planning.Free resource: Who Will Carry What?

Episode 331: We're Back! Catching Up on a Big Summer in the Down Syndrome CommunityWe're back! After a three-month summer break, we're catching up on some of the biggest conversations, stories, and moments that happened across the Down syndrome community while we were away.We start with a difficult conversation surrounding YouTuber Jesse Ridgway and his wife Ashley, who publicly shared their prenatal Down syndrome diagnosis and decision to terminate their pregnancy. We talk about the weight of sharing deeply personal moments online, the pressure advocates can feel to respond publicly, and the misinformation and fear that still surround a Down syndrome diagnosis.We also discuss the importance of how we narrate the lives of people with Down syndrome—not through tragedy or inspiration, but through the fullness of their humanity.Then we turn toward some of the encouraging stories we saw this summer, including Texas Rangers usher and dancing queen Hannah Speirs, Rachel McKay Bailey's perspective on expecting a baby with Down syndrome, and the DeOndra Dixon INCLUDE Project Act supporting Down syndrome research.We also remember Born This Way star Christina Sands and the legacy she leaves behind.And finally, we're sharing some good news from our own families: Ace reaching a new level of independence, Sunflower's first mother-daughter pedicure, and Macy turning 18.We missed you, friends.

It's claimed more needs to be done at a government level to offer greater levels of therapy services to people with Down Syndrome in Clare. It comes as Down Syndrome Ireland's main fundraising event took place over the weekend, with over €500,000 raised by last year's edition, enabling the purchase of a new headquarters for the Clare branch. Cranny resident Orla Shannon's eight year old daughter accesses the services and supports offered through DS Clare. She says it helps them benefit from therapy services otherwise not available through the HSE.

Send us Fan MailA diagnosis can feel like it writes your child's future in ink, but that story is usually wrong. We sit down with Sean Adelman, an orthopedic trauma surgeon and dad to a daughter with Down syndrome, to talk about what he's learned outside the textbooks: people are not their worst day, and kids are not their labels. The big throughline is raising expectations, not as pressure, but as possibility.We get personal about how exposure changes fear into understanding. I share how my family first connected with Down syndrome, then how my son's autism diagnosis forced me to rethink communication, parenting goals, and what “support” really means. Sean adds the perspective of a clinician who sees hard moments for a living, and how that can warp the way professionals and families imagine disability, neurodiversity, and the full spectrum of the human condition.From there we zoom out to the everyday skills that make inclusion real: being a safe landing for your kids, modeling how to handle failure, and choosing kindness in small moments that tell people, “I see you.” We also break down acceptance vs inclusion, the dignity of risk, and why supported employment and inclusive hiring are not charity but smart business that improves morale and reduces turnover. We end with practical next steps, including ways to volunteer with Special Olympics, Best Buddies, or your local ARC, plus resources at raiseexpectations.com.If this conversation shifts your thinking even a little, please subscribe, share it with another parent or educator, and leave a review so more families can find it.

In this episode of This is Yoga Therapy, host Michele Lawrence sits down with Renata Sumar Gaertner, C-IAYT, the director and lead teacher of Yoga for All Abilities, carrying forward her mother's legendary Sonia Sumar Method.Renata began her yoga journey at just three years old and completed her first Hatha training at twelve. Raised alongside her sister, Roberta, who was born with Down Syndrome, Renata witnessed firsthand the profound developmental power of an individualized practice. Bridging her lifelong lineage roots with a degree in Speech Therapy and a postgraduate specialization in Language Disorders, Renata has dedicated her life to making yoga accessible and empowering for individuals with disabilities, neurodiversity, and additional needs.In this conversation, we explore:The Myth of the Standard Template: Shifting away from a "one-size-fits-all" approach to physical alignment and defining what personal alignment truly means for a student's physiological safety and growth.The Neurobiology of Development: The reality of what happens when individuals navigating Down Syndrome, cerebral palsy, or autism practice a structured, individualized yoga protocol.Establishing Nervous System Safety: How practitioners and parents can use breath, vocal resonance, and deep attention to build baseline safety for children with severe sensory processing challenges or communication barriers.Moving from Fear to Service: Shifting our mindset out of intimidation when working with complex additional needs and stepping into heart-centered, professional care.ResourcesLearn more about Renata's work & global trainings: Visit SpecialYoga.com to explore Part 1 and Part 2 certification pathways, continuing education modules, and private mentoring support.Support the showConnect with Inner Peace Yoga TherapyEmail us: info@innerpeaceyogatherapy.comWebsiteInstagramFacebook

The debate over data centers has prompted thousands of questions about the approval process and the impact in Colorado Springs. Then, what if the United States treated child care in the same way it treats schools, parks and libraries? Denver author Elliot Haspel explores that idea in his book, "Raising a Nation." And we catch up with 14-year-old Jeremiah Daniels and his parents, Joy and Terrance, as his debut movie, "The Color Book," about a father raising a son with Down Syndrome, premieres on Netflix June 19.

Islamist immigrants have tried to behead two people in the past week and two “youths” have beaten to death a gay man in Dublin. Don't they know it's Pride Week? Can someone remind me what comes after Pride?And yes they are shameless here in LA — they have stolen the election. The last hope for Los Angeles was Spencer Pratt but due to a mysterious late surge in votes for his Democratic Socialist opponent, he is out of the running. And talking of Pride and the Fall. We watched the Tony Awards, for theater, so you don't have to. Watch this week's show to get a taste of what you didn't miss. We challenge you to recognize any of the shows mentioned during Pink's speech. Also don't weep for Scott Pelley after he was fired from “60 Minutes”. He is a useless, biased hack and we can prove it.Also on the show we reveal how DEI will let you die. This week a scandalous case from the UK shows a case of real police brutality, but the George Floyd kneelers are nowhere to be found. And that's because the victim is white.Did you know “Dr” Jill Biden wrote a memoir? Not many people did. The book was discounted the first day it went on sale. But don't rush out to buy it — this week we read it so you didn't have to. Guess who she forgot to mention? Watch as we expose the Biden crime family and the members they left behind. They are merciless in their abuse of a seven-year-old girl.On this week's podcast we showcase a couple who make a living sharing the minutiae of their lives and reveal how they shared news that did not get the reaction they expected. Watch as the couple who sacrificed their child because of a Down Syndrome diagnosis gets the backlash they deserve, and the beautiful people who spoke out against the atrocity. You can read their abortion announcement and backlash through the link below. Also there is a documentary we can't recommend enough that exposes what the world would look like if these stupid, bad people had their way and we had a world without Down Syndrome (linked below).Spoiler: it would have much less joy and hope.  Last but not least this week's Crazy Headline comes from Ireland (of course) where the whole country has been gaslit. This week we and Irish children learn more about “pregnant people”!To see influencers draw unwanted but deserved backlash to their abortion announcement: https://tinyurl.com/ypkjn7dbTo watch “A World Without Down Syndrome”: https://tinyurl.com/zh84cdaj*****************************************************To Donate: https://secure.anedot.com/unreported-story-society/main_donate_2026Projects You Need to Check Out: https://unreportedstorysociety.com/our-projects/To read Substack https://tinyurl.com/ejd8vtrs Ann & Phelim SocialsPhelim's X: (https://x.com/PhelimMcAleer)Ann's X: (https://x.com/annmcelhinney)USS SocialsInsta: (https://www.instagram.com/unreportedstorysociety/)Facebook: (https://www.facebook.com/TheAPScoop/)X: (https://x.com/AP_Unreported)*****************************************************

A doctor said he needed knee surgery. He said no. Robert Norris is 22 years old, has Down syndrome, and completes Ironman triathlons without a guide. He taught himself to ride a bike, swam with Navy SEALs in the Hudson River, ran the Boston Marathon through bloody blisters, and trains daily with a volume most able-bodied athletes never touch: 80-mile bike rides, 10-mile runs, 2100-yard swims.   Joe De Sena sits down with Robert and his mother, Wanda, a retired Navy veteran, to unpack how a slipped kneecap became a turning point, why Robert refuses to quit under any condition, and what happens when a young man with an extra chromosome decides the hard way is the only way. This episode delivers a direct challenge: if Robert Norris can show up every single day without excuses, what is stopping you?   Things You Will Learn: Why a physical setback can become the trigger for a higher standard instead of a retreat. The structure behind a non-negotiable daily routine that eliminates the need for motivation. What consistent action proves to the people who expect you to stop.   Tools & Frameworks Covered: Setback-to-Standard Conversion: Use injury or adversity as the catalyst for a higher training commitment, not a reason to stop. Non-Negotiable Daily Structure: Wake time, bedtime, training order, and nutrition are locked in. Remove decision fatigue. Execute the plan. Progressive Proof of Capability: Start with one mile. Then eighteen. Then a hundred. Let results silence doubt.   If this episode moved you, do not just listen. Do something about it. Sign up. Show up. Do the work. Spartan.com. No more excuses.   Robert Norris is a Guinness World Record–holding endurance athlete who redefined limits by becoming the first athlete with Down syndrome to complete a full Ironman triathlon independently, setting the fastest time in his category. His journey represents relentless discipline, the breaking of perceived limitations, and the building of an unshakable mindset through years of preparation and adversity.   Connect to Robert: Website: https://www.robertnorrismanofiron.com/about  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/robertnorrismanofiron/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/robert.norris.432406/ YouTube: http://youtube.com/@GETFITWIthRobert-21 ꚠ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@robertnorrismanofiron?   We gave you the tools, now use them during your next SPARTAN RACE!

In this deeply personal and heartfelt episode of The Right Side, Doug Billings shares the full story of raising his son Michael, who has Down syndrome (Trisomy 21).From the overwhelming fear and questions in the hospital after Michael's diagnosis, to the incredible joy and blessings he has brought over the past 24 years, Doug offers hope and truth to every parent who has received — or may one day receive — a Down syndrome diagnosis.This episode was inspired by the recent announcement from YouTubers Jesse Ridgway and his wife, who chose to abort their baby after a prenatal Down syndrome diagnosis, and Lila Rose's powerful response on Fox & Friends.Doug explains why he calls the extra 21st chromosome “the Divine Chromosome” and why, if given the choice today, he would not change Michael's diagnosis.This is a message of hope, love, and truth for families — one that challenges the culture of death and celebrates the beauty and value of every life.If you or someone you love has faced this diagnosis, this episode is for you.God bless you and your family.to see the video version of this episode, click here: https://youtu.be/zcDuAxHcDtI#DownSyndrome #DivineChromosome #ProLife #ChooseLife #SpecialNeeds #DownSyndromeAwareness #Parenting #Fatherhood #Faith #ChristianTestimony #LifeIsBeautiful #Trisomy21Support the show

It's Monday, June 8th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Russian pastor labeled “terrorist” for speaking against Ukraine war On May 28th, Russian authorities labeled 74-year-old Baptist pastor Yuri Sipko to be a terrorist, reports International Christian Concern. As the former head of the Union of Evangelical Baptist Christians in Russia, he has spoken out against the war in Ukraine on social media. As a result, Russia launched a criminal case against him in August 2023, claiming he was spreading false information about military actions. At the time, Sipko said,  “They are looking for me to put me in prison because I've spoken the truth that Russia waged war on Ukraine,  People are dying, and everything is being destroyed. It's criminal, and they should not be doing this.” During the investigation, Sipko's home was raided, but he managed to escape. In Matthew 5:10, Jesus said, “Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of Heaven.” Iran's missiles failed to hit Saudi Arabia or Bahrain On June 2nd, U.S. forces successfully defeated multiple Iranian ballistic missiles and drones, and conducted self-defense strikes on Qeshm Island in the Strait of Hormuz in response to attempted attacks by Iran across the Middle East, reported the United States Central Command on X. Iran launched several ballistic missiles toward regional neighbors. However, all failed to hit their intended targets. Two Iranian missiles fired at Kuwait fell short or broke apart enroute, and three missiles launched at Bahrain were immediately intercepted by U.S. and Bahrain air defense forces. House resolution constrains Trump from military action against Iran In a vote of 215-208 on June 3rd, the U.S. House of Representatives passed a measure seeking to stop President Trump from taking further military action in Iran amid growing opposition to the war, reports the Associated Press. President Trump called the 215 representatives who passed the resolution "unpatriotic.” In a post on Truth Social, the president wrote: "In a meaningless vote, the House voted, 4 bad Republicans and all of the Dumocrats, to limit my War Powers, right in the middle of my final negotiations to end the War with the Islamic Republic of Iran. Who would do such an unpatriotic thing?" It is unclear how much legal force the House's measure will have. The White House described the move as an unconstitutional attempt to restrict presidential power. Four GOP Senators opposed Safeguard Voter Eligibility Act On June 4th, the U.S. Senate failed to pass the Safeguard Voter Eligibility Act which would require people to show documented proof of citizenship, reports Fox News. Republican Senators Susan Collins of Maine, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, Thom Tillis of North Carolina and Mitch McConnell of Kentucky voted against the motion, signaling that the SAVE America Act does not have the votes to pass. Appearing on Fox News, Republican Senator Mike Lee of Utah said this. LEE: “Americans overwhelmingly support the need for voter I.D. They overwhelmingly support the need to verify citizenship from those registered to vote in this country. That's why the overwhelming majority, a super majority, of Republican voters, of Democrat voters nationwide want the S.A.V.E America Act passed. And even want it passed before the midterm elections. “That cuts across the board in people of both political parties. The only place where this is even remotely controversial is in the halls of Congress with Democrats. We've got to get this done to make our elections safe and secure again.” Indeed, according to Pew Research Center, 83% of Americans favor requiring all voters to show government-issued photo ID to vote, including 95% of Republicans and 71% of Democrats. Trump beautifies Washington, D.C. Ahead of America's 250th birthday, President Donald Trump made a promise. TRUMP: “We're going to get all the graffiti off the marble. We're going to fix the roads and the medians, which are falling down all over the street. Washington, D.C. will become a symbol of beauty, security, freedom, and strength.” Specifically speaking, for nearly two decades, the Columbus Fountain in front of Washington's Union Station was nonfunctional. Now, water is flowing again after 19 years. Plus, all of the obscene graffiti that President Joe Biden had tolerated was power washed away. The work was completed thanks to President Donald Trump's executive order on "Making the District of Columbia Safe and Beautiful." Appearing on CNN's State of the Union, Interior Secretary Doug Bergum said this. BERGUM: “The real scandal is not that we're fixing up monuments or making this capital beautiful again. The scandal should be, how in the world did we let our capital fall into such a disrepair? How did we fall into such a spot where celebrating American patriotism became partisan?” At a cabinet meeting, President Trump weighed in. TRUMP: “D.C. is looking beautiful, and the fountains are almost all open.” Most notably, the reflecting pool between the Washington Monument and Lincoln Memorial was in terrible disrepair.  After draining the pool and removing 12 truckloads of trash, they repaired the leaks in the pool's concrete slab and joints by applying a waterproof coating, and painted it “American flag” blue to improve the reflection.  After starting the filling process on June 4th, it was completely filled yesterday, June 7th. YouTuber announced abortion of Down syndrome baby And finally, YouTube influencer Jesse Ridgway, who has 4 million followers, is facing a massive backlash after he announced on X that he and his wife decided to abort their baby after the child was diagnosed with Down syndrome, reports LifeSiteNews.com. Horrifically, Ridgway stated that he and his wife researched Down syndrome and decided that it would be best for both the child and for his family if the baby was killed in the womb—and noted that over 90 percent of children diagnosed with Down syndrome are aborted. He said, “50% of babies with Down syndrome have heart defects. 75% will have hearing challenges. Over 50% will have vision problems. … Sadly, the list is long. … As for us, we made a difficult decision that we believe, in the long-run, will be beneficial for our family. Thankfully, we had a choice.” Incidentally, despite frequent health difficulties, nearly 99 percent of people with Down syndrome report being happy with their lives; 96 percent like how they look; and 97 percent like who they are.  Dr. Calum Miller, a United Kingdom doctor and ethicist, said, “I'm sorry you murdered your child because he/she didn't pass quality control.” He pointed out that Ridgway had previously celebrated the fact that his dog had managed to survive a complicated surgery and was now living without kidneys. Columnist Mollie Hemingway wrote, “Killing your baby because he wasn't perfect in your eyes is so sad and dark and, yes, evil. Even if we didn't know how wonderful people with Down syndrome are. I pray you find Jesus. Life is beautiful.” And podcaster Brittany Hughes bluntly put it: “There is no way of framing this that will gain my sympathy. No poetic waxing, no begging for understanding, no tearful excuses. My heart breaks for this precious baby who was killed for the crime of having an extra chromosome by the two people who should have protected him or her with their own lives.” Proverbs 31:8 says, “Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Monday, June 8th, in the year of our Lord 2026.

John Odermatt, Lou Perez, and Brian McWilliams kick off the episode with a viral story about a YouTube couple who publicly live-streamed learning their unborn child tested positive for Down syndrome — and subsequently aborted the pregnancy. The hosts debate the ethics of turning deeply personal medical decisions into content, the accuracy of prenatal testing, and what they see as hypocrisy in progressive attitudes toward human life. The conversation transitions into the LA mayoral race, with mail-in ballot counting dragging on and potentially shifting results. The episode closes with a look at Bernie Sanders' proposed American AI Sovereign Wealth Fund Act, which would impose a 50% tax on AI company stock and redistribute proceeds to citizens, and the hosts compare it to what Marc Andreessen allegedly described as the Biden administration's attempt to limit and control the AI industry.

Dr. Nick Epley, PhD, is a professor of behavioral science at the University of Chicago and a leading expert on the science of social connection. We discuss how seemingly small daily interactions with strangers (as well as with people we know) can meaningfully improve our mental and physical health. Dr. Epley also explains how to reduce social anxiety using simple and easily accessible science-supported tools. We also discuss the data on assumptions — both the ones we and others make — and why so often those are wrong when it comes to social dynamics. Read the episode show notes at hubermanlab.com.
