Mackenzie Beauvais-Nikl, the co-host of “Everybody In,” experiences autism. But this podcast isn’t really about that, exactly. This podcast is about conversations and connections. It’s about how we are the same, and how we’re different. For each episode, Mackenzie and her co-host Andrea Moore interview a different guest. Some of their guests experience intellectual and developmental disabilities, also known as I/DD, and some don’t. They talk about friendship, family, adulthood, and — when it comes up — disability. The podcast is called “Everybody In” because they are so interested in… EVERYBODY.

The format of each episode alternates depending on who leads the interview. Mackenzie interviews guests who identify as neurotypical, meaning that they don’t have a diagnosed intellectual or developmental disability. Mackenzie asks her guest the same two questions each time, and then her guest gets to surprise her with two questions of their own. Together they go back-and-forth, getting to know each other better.

Andrea interviews guests with disabilities. Her guests might experience Down syndrome, autism, cerebral palsy, fragile X, or other developmental or genetic differences. Andrea asks them a series of questions about friendship, disability, housing, transportation, love and romance, and their special gifts. At the end of the interview, the guest has an opportunity to ask Andrea or Mackenzie any questions in return.

In every episode, Mackenzie and Andrea work together to bridge any gaps, ask follow-up questions, and keep the party rolling!

Join your host, Amy Bitterman, as she chats with state and district special education staff, who, just like you, are dealing with IDEA data every day. We hope that by sharing these real experiences, you’ll be able to feel more connected to colleagues in other states doing the same work, grow together, and, ultimately, improve your data quality.

My son’s story I wrote to share about his diagnosis with autism, riddled with trauma, confusion, and so much stimming. My destiny became to stop trauma like Jesse’s for other families and be the professional that remembers what it was like to be on the other end of the table. Collaboration with other fellow educators shined the crucial need for parental education, protection, and support. This podcast aligned with different brilliant minds is here to empower parents. This empowerment will heal the classroom struggle burning out teachers while negatively impacting children that deserve better. Speaking out gives our group hopes that children will thrive, surpassing their divine potential while seeing teacher burnout can finally be manageable. JAM is my three sons on the spectrum Jesse, Ammon, and Markus. I am excited to JAM with bright, beautiful, and articulate mothers that are “Speducating.” We will reach as many people as possible because people don’t know what they don’t know if no one helps them learn.

I am Rachael, and this is my JAM.
