Genia Stephen — founder and host of the Good Things In Life podcast. She supports families to help kids with intellectual disabilities build inclusive lives at home, school, and in the community. She’s also a midwife with 10+ years’ experience working with families, including those welcoming a child with a disability.

Tim talks with Genia Stephen about why podcasting is her go‑to way to bring disability thought leaders to families, what inclusion looks like across Canada and the U.S., and why “perfect inclusion” is aspirational—but inclusion still beats segregation every time. They discuss real‑life examples—from Genia’s sister and friend Becky to her son’s schooling—that show how community, relationships, and access to the regular curriculum create better outcomes.
