You've got the power! In this week's episode, we talk with Geralyn Spiesz about Epigenetics, Neuroplasticity, Down Syndrome, Autism, and more!

Geralyn Spiesz is an Occupational Therapist, author of Redefining the Reality of Down Syndrome: The Power of an Integrative Mindset, and founder of The Down Syndrome Action Plan Community.

What I hope you take away from this conversation is that thanks to epigenetics and neuroplasticity, you've got the power! No matter what genes you might have been born with, your genes are NOT your destiny!

We ALL have the power to influence the expression of genes through the environment we create for our bodies to live in!

Whether it is dietary change, palate expanders, stress reduction, or physical exercise, it's all about supporting your child body, mind, and soul so they can grow into their best selves!
