Kelsey Cooper
I hope those in the disabled community can enjoy these stories of bringing beautiful babies into the world, and the journey along the way. I hope this podcast helps you feel seen, heard, empowered, and capable no matter your journey to being a parent. I hope those who are able-bodied would listen to empathize with and support their disabled family member, friend, acquaintance, or random stranger. Thank You for listening and feel free to email me if you have any questions or would like to be featured on the podcast at [email protected]
