Hello! This is Phil Ash, teacher, father, board member of the GRIN2B Foundation, and the host of Celebrating Rare: The GRIN2B Podcast. I thought this would be a small way I could contribute to the cause of our non-profit organization.

I hope you enjoy the listen, and understand that we will get better as we go along. Our podcasts features commentary, updates on research and a variety of guests - all in an effort to gain understanding and connect families affected by GRIN2B-Related Neurodevelopmental Disorder.PODCAST Disclaimer: While I make every effort to broadcast correct information, I am still learning.

Episode 8: Celebrating Rare: The GRIN2B Podcast Episode 8 - Defining and Combating Ableism
The goal of this episode is to define ableism, name it in its various forms and reflect upon the times when we have all perpetuated ableism both in society at large and within the rare disease space. I promise my listeners that this episode will be very informative and probably uncomfortable at times to hear. But I encourage you all to lean into your discomfort with the knowledge that you will come out on the other side better for having experienced it and better able to be active allies for your disabled loved ones. As part of this episode, I am thrilled to welcome Ashley Eisenmenger, a disability inclusion specialist, and disabled triathlete. She will offer her unique perspectives on Ableism and how she experiences its effects both big and small.**WARNING: This podcast contains frank statistics involving physical and sexual abuse of disabled people.
