Episode 107: Unexpected Beauty: What We Can Learn From Parents Raising Special Needs Children with Amanda Cunningham

Do you ever wonder how the unexpected shifts in our story will be used for His glory? This podcast is for you! Jeff and Terra have a life-giving conversation with Amanda Cunningham, founder of The Glory Days Co., a company that provides organizational tools for parents and caregivers of children with special needs. Amanda not only shares the gift of these resources with our audience, but she shares openly about her unexpected journey with her daughter Rory. Amanda’s story reveals how God weaves everything - our story, gifts, and talents - together to create something beautiful.

Amanda’s daughter, Aurora “Rory”, was born with an unexpected diagnosis of Down Syndrome. The early months following Rory’s birth were filled with confusion and overwhelm as Amanda attended multiple doctor and therapy appointments, while wading through the newness of becoming a stay-at-home mom of two. When looking for tools to support her in this new role as a special needs parent, she found nothing. Desperate, Amanda created an organizational system that is now The Glory Days Daily Planner - the first daily planner for children with special needs. This planner launched an entire line of products which serve parents who are living the day-to-day with a special needs child in their home. Amanda and her husband live in West Virginia with their three kids.
