Sláinte! (pronounced "slawn-cha") is Gaelic for "health," which is a great way to greet our guest this week! Erin Oneill joins us from Edinburgh, Scotland, to talk about her journey to discover her people. Although she is an ocean away, she has made strong friendships here in the States. This support has kept her going when dealing with some serious GI issues leading to living with a stoma. Her fortitude and positivity are why she is so beloved in our WS community

Sometimes the stars align and a person comes along and you didn't know you were supposed to connect, but once you did you instantly knew that something big was going to happen. This is the case with our new friend and guest this week: Dr. Carolyn Shivers. Not only is Dr. Carolyn a brilliant psychologist working on how to bridge the gap between people with I/DD and the others who don't, she is on the committee working to make this Buffalo Convention the best one yet! Get ready to listen her on ableism, overlooked siblings, and self-determination in a way I guarantee has never been more fun and entertaining!
