This month we’ve celebrated Down Syndrome Awareness Month with episodes based on popular Google search topics! Today we’re joined by award-winning photographer Hilary Gauld and advocate Kate Herron for this episode all about answering the question: Can a person with Down syndrome Shift Narratives? In 2014, Hilary and Kate collaborated on a fundraising calendar featuring Kate's 10-month-old son, Caleb, for the Waterloo Wellington Down Syndrome Society (WWDSS). What began as a local project quickly grew into a decade-long advocacy journey, evolving into an internationally recognized series that challenges stereotypes and represents the Down syndrome community in meaningful, thought-provoking ways. Hilary’s sharing how her friend Kate’s invitation sparked her dedication to authentically representing the Down syndrome community, the impact her work has had on families seeing themselves and their loved ones reflected in media, and the powerful role of storytelling in breaking down barriers. We’re also chatting about their documentary Decade, which celebrates the ten years of this incredible project, the impact the last ten years have had on their advocacy, what they hope for the future, and so much more! Friends, this is an episode you don’t want to miss!
