Friends, you know we don’t shy away from asking the hard questions; today we’re diving into a complex one: Can an advocate get it wrong sometimes? We discuss the balance of advocating and learning, the foundation of a good advocate, and how humility shapes our advocacy journey. We explore the responsibility and journey of advocating for those with Down syndrome, and why being a listener and learner is key to effective advocacy. How long do you have to be part of something to be an advocate? What is the foundation of a good advocate? What happens if you do get it wrong? Tune in to hear our personal stories, how we’ve grown along this journey so far, and the importance of humility in advocacy. Join us for a thoughtful conversation you won't want to miss! --- SHOW NOTES:  Other episodes to check out: 28. Owning Your Influence In ALL Your Spaces! 101.
