Podcast Episode Four
Hello all. I just wanted to repost the latest podcast here on SMA News Today. I interviewed Dr. Danielle Sheypuk, a clinical psychologist with SMA who focuses her research on disability and dating. I’d love to hear your thoughts on this episode, and to generate a discussion around it.
Here’s the link to the social clip, which has the podcast embedded into it: https://smanewstoday.com/2018/01/24/sma-news-today-podcast-episode-4-dr-danielle-sheypuk/

Great podcast! I especially liked when she brought up the point that if others see more couples where one or both individuals may have a disability it will become more accepted. That holds true for a lot of aspects of a person with a disability. From jobs to entertainment if more people saw we actually do these things it might become commonplace.

Absolutely! The more this is normalized in everyday life and in popular media, the better it is for all of us. Dating, work, relationships, career goals- these are all things that society needs to recognize are not exclusive. People with disabilities are just as capable of pursuing relationships and careers as able-bodied people.
