In this deeply moving and inspiring episode of For Your Ears from the Early Years, host Lili-Ann Kriegler speaks with Julie Fisher, acclaimed author and advocate, about her journey as the mother of Darcy, who has Down’s syndrome. Julie’s perspective is intimate and enlightening, drawing from her life experiences and four published books which explore parenting, advocacy, and inclusion themes.
As we commemorate the International Day of People with Disability, this conversation sheds light on the realities of raising a child with a disability—challenges, joys, and the unexpected ways it transforms lives. Julie reflects on how Darcy’s unique journey has enriched her understanding of community, belonging, and the incredible potential of inclusive practices in early childhood settings.
This episode celebrates resilience, love, and the importance of seeing every child for who they are. It offers educators, parents, and advocates practical insights and emotional truths about the power of intentional, inclusive education.
