118: Shifting the Narrative About Down Syndrome with Heather and Josh Avis Oct 29, 2020

Show notes

Just in time for Down Syndrome Awareness Month, this week I had the privilege to sit down with two of my very good friends Heather and Josh Avis to discuss their work at The Lucky Few, all about encouraging families to reorient the way the view developmental differences such as Down syndrome. We really dig into the good, the bad, the painful of this work: how to make room for more representation, how to build a counter-narrative to the harmful ones we often see in our community, and how to seek to understand while at the same time, appreciating that you will never fully understand.

You can follow Josh and Heather's adventures over at The Lucky Few website: https://www.heatheravis.com and Instagram account: https://www.instagram.com/theluckyfewofficial/

BONUS: Remembering Who You Are In a Season of Transition Oct 23, 2020

Show notes

In the midst of transition, a world flipped upside down, SO many of us lose a sense of who we are.

You had a job that’s gone away, a relationship that’s ended, kids living in the house who’ve moved out — and now that this thing that was so much of who you were is gone, what does it mean for your identity? What of the thoughts and emotions that come with these shifting seas?

In last month’s Life Coaching course I walked my community through some of the insights and breakthroughs that have come my way in the regular live chats we have in our Facebook group. As much as the video quality isn’t the sharpest, I hope this can be a resource for anyone who’s in any way struggling to understand who they are in the midst of the sea changes that we’re all experiencing.
