054 | Grief, Acceptance, and Processing Special Needs Parenting - with Jody Warshawsky

This is a very different episode then the ones I’ve done in the past. I have had a lot on my mind and I wanted to share that with you. I believe that it really ties in to special needs parenting and has given me clarity about why I am even here, doing this podcast, and why I have such a passion to talk to parents with kids that have special needs. I share stories about my childhood, my relationship with my mom, grieving her death, and how I have become a stronger advocate for special needs families and a more understanding and accepting parent because of her.

056 | How Hope Can Help You Process an Autism Diagnosis - with Sherilyn Toro

On this episode, I am talking with Sherilyn Toro who is an amazing mama of two kids. Her daughter was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes when she was ten years old, and her son, Gabe, was recently diagnosed with Autism. She is so incredible and openly shares about her hopes and fears surrounding her son’s diagnosis, how important Early Intervention was to his growth, her grieving process, how everything has affected her marriage, and what having two children with very different diagnoses is like. Sher has come such a long way on her journey and the wisdom and hope that she gives are things that I wish every mom could know at the beginning.
