  • Cerebral Palsy Is Not a Gender
    May 14 2026

    Here’s a strong, thoughtful YouTube description for the *Palsy Power* episode:


    In this episode of *Palsy Power*, Cody and Tylia have an honest conversation about the recent controversy surrounding public influencer Aaron Rose and the statements made connecting cerebral palsy to gender identity.


    As two adults living with cerebral palsy, we felt it was important to speak up — not from hate, but from concern about how these narratives may affect the public’s understanding of people with CP.


    Cerebral palsy is a neurological disability. It is not a gender, an identity crisis, or something that determines a person’s worth.


    In a world already filled with misunderstanding surrounding disability, we believe representation matters. We discuss how viral statements can impact children with CP, families, churches, and the disability community as a whole while also sharing our personal experiences, faith, and perspective.


    This episode is about truth, compassion, awareness, and breaking harmful stigmas.


    “Fearfully and wonderfully made.” — Psalm 139:14

  • “Whoa: Hitting the Reins on Housing with Cerebral Palsy”
    Mar 2 2026


    In this episode of Palsy Power Podcast, Tylia and Cody pull back on the reins and say “whoa” to the challenges that many people with cerebral palsy face when it comes to independence and housing. From navigating accessible living spaces to discussing the realities of maintaining autonomy as adults with disabilities, the conversation gets real, honest, and encouraging.


    Tylia and Cody share personal insights about what independence means for people with cerebral palsy, the barriers that still exist in housing, and why conversations about accessibility and support systems matter more than ever. Along the way, the episode also brings plenty of heart and humor—including a delicious shout-out to Tylia’s mom’s famous pernil, which may or may not steal the spotlight for a moment.


    The episode closes with a meaningful reflection on Cerebral Palsy Awareness Month, celebrating resilience, advocacy, and the strength of the CP community.


    Real talk, faith, food, advocacy, and laughter—this episode has a little bit of everything.
