A NEW EPISODE EVERY THURSDAY… MOST OF THE TIME!
The Osborne Adventure Podcast is a raw and honest look at family, purpose, adventure, and the road to an extraordinary life. Follow our journey as we prepare for and eventually set sail on a global family expedition to raise awareness for Down syndrome.
Along the way, we share the realities of parenting, the mess and meaning of family life, the challenges of chasing a big dream, and the beauty of raising a child with Down syndrome.
Whether you're a sailor, a parent, part of the disability community, or simply someone who wants more out of life, we hope these conversations leave you encouraged, inspired, and ready for adventure.
If you prefer, you can also listen to the Osborne Adventure podcast on SPOTIFY or APPLE PODCASTS.
Life with the Osbornes - Amanda Cirillo interview - Ep. 12
On this episode of the Osborne Adventure podcast, we explore what we have termed “Adventure Parenting”. Join us as we discuss why we decided to change our lives to immerse our kids in nature, encourage them to take risks, and help them become confident and independent. We share personal stories about our successes and failures, how they shaped our family, and how these experiences have helped prepare us for the expedition ahead! Get ready to laugh, shake your head, and judge us (possibly more than a little)!
Val and I share an unexpected experience after being invited to an elementary school assembly where 300 students gathered for a presentation about Down syndrome led by a fourth grader named Hailey. What followed were thoughtful questions, funny moments, and a firsthand look at how deeply kids connected with our family, our mission, and the idea of adventure without limits.
