139. Motherhood, Advocacy & More! ft. Alex Rivera, founder of For Kids By Kids
When Alex’s daughter Penny was born with Down syndrome almost 3 years ago, she had no idea how it would impact her family, especially her oldest daughter. But today, Alex and her daughter work together on a special project called: For Kids By Kids where they sell products with a purpose. That’s because each purchase helps support the National Down Syndrome Society. And this month, they’re launching a very special collection of dolls who share features of children with DS, because representation matters! And you can never start too early. So tune in to learn more about how Alex started FKBK, why representation is so important, and how having a child with DS has sparked a creativity in all of us.
