Accepting The Unacceptable, Parenting Autism, Epilepsy, Special Needs

I've struggled the last few months and many times have felt lost. Not knowing where I'm going or what I'm doing. And I know that so many of you must be feeling the same way. So, in this episode, I am talking about what it is that we can learn from this situation and how we can do what is called Suffering Consciously.

On this Q&A episode of the podcast, I am responding to a question about how offended we are when we hear the R word. We have to process through all the feelings that come with that because it's inevitable. It's all around us. So, I hope you will get a lot out of this and I would love to hear your thoughts on this as well!

Today’s topic is ALL about bargaining. It is an important stage because it is one that will actually keep us stuck the longest. I don't think we even realize we are doing it. So, in today’s podcast, you'll learn all about what bargaining is and what it isn't, and why it's the foundation for getting to that place of acceptance.

Accepting The Unacceptable, Parenting Autism, Epilepsy, Special Needs

This episode about anger and grieving what your old ideas or thoughts were for your child. It is a previously recorded episode and it's one of the first one I've ever done. I wanted to play it because the discussion of the stages of grief still rings true for any mom or any parent who is processing through a diagnosis for their child.
