FASD Family Life

Robbie Seale

FASD Family Life podcast is where we get REAL about raising children and youth with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder. I am Robbie Seale, the host and producer of the FASD Family Life Podcast. I'm so glad that you found this podcast.
I am not a social worker or a psychologist. I am a mom who snuck into conferences, scoured the internet, read books, attended for webinars and workshops because I was desperate to learn everything I could about Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder and trauma. Why? Because my family was in crisis!
What I learned changed EVERYTHING!
I want to share what I learned with you, parent to parent. I know the struggle is real, and so is success! To hear my story listen to season 1, episode 10.
The FASD Family Life podcast will encourage, educate, and equip you to become a confident caregiver of your loved one with FASD and trauma. You will discover the source of challenging behaviours, how to care for yourself amid the stress, and learn practical strategies to improve life for you and your loved one with FASD.
If you have a comment or a question email me at [email protected].
I'd love to hear from you!

Aloha Community Platteville
We have a beautiful five-bedroom home that sits on four lush acres outside Platteville, Wisconsin. Our young adults can thrive in a structured, calm environment that combines the safety of 24-hour staff oversight with the coziness of a home family environment.

Each resident has a bedroom, access to communal spaces, where she can watch movies, play video games, participate in crafting, cooking or just relax.

Additionally, our expansive property allows for plenty of outdoor activities including gardening and maintaining a hobby farm.
The Program/Admissions
After years of structure and support — both at home and at school – that protective scaffolding falls away when our kids reach age 21. As a result, it’s not uncommon for many individuals with FASD to grapple with unemployment, substance abuse and homelessness.

Ours is an FASD only based program, developed collaboratively with Montana’s’ Farm in The Dell project and customized to meet the needs of our population. We provide the tools to achieve daily functioning skills, including duties such as preparing dinner or tending to our farm animals. This enables our residents to have a sense of responsibility, collaboration and productivity.

Our FASD-trained staff are on site 24\7.

Give us a call at: (808)-523-8191

We’ll listen. Our program is designed to create a life that balances independence and autonomy for your child and peace of mind for you. https://fasdcommunities.org/housing/

Finding ways to guide and support her daughter with strength-based modalities has driven Darlene’s advocacy in the community and most recently in the Healthcare system alongside her daughter. A medical crisis 10 years ago prompted Darlene's search for solutions. Her late night google search brought her to Nutritional Interventions for Children with FASD, by Diane Black, PhD.
( http://come-over.to/FAS/FASDnutrition.htm ) In response Darlene radically changed her family's diet and was astounded by the results. Ten years on, Darlene's family still hold fast to their allergen free diet for the health and wellbeing of the whole family.

Welcome to FASD Family Life, the podcast for families by families where we get real about raising children and youth with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder. I’m your host, Robbie Seale, FASD Educator, advocate and mom of four children with FASD. I know the struggle is real, but so is success.
Whether this is your first episode, or your 65th, I am grateful to be spending this time with you. Please join me with a hot cup of coffee as we listen to the remarkable story of Paul Thompson and Glenda Jansen and the power of relationship to transform lives.
Paul Thompson and Glenda Jansen candidly share their lived experience; that of an individual who navigated homelessness from the age of 16 for thirty years with an undiagnosed disability (FASD), and that of the person who came into his life with unexpected advocacy and support. Resiliency, the power of relationship, and connection are woven throughout Paul and Glenda’s back-and-forth style presentation as they combine facts with story, humour, and love through tumultuous times. Listeners will leave with a sense of hope, and the understanding that it is never too late for a diagnosis or a new beginning! This promises to be an evening of laughter and learning for all.

Paul Thompson lived for more than 40 years with the undiagnosed effects of Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder, of which 30 were spent on the streets or incarcerated. He also experienced severe childhood trauma which affected many areas of his life. In 2009 Paul’s life turned around with unexpected advocacy and support; he willingly walked through the open doors and hasn’t looked back. Paul exemplifies why it’s never too late for a life to change.

Glenda Jansen worked with individuals who have special needs before she retired; as a care aide for three years, and then as a special education assistant at an independent school for fifteen. Glenda is passionate about FASD and believes relationship is key to success. In 2009 Glenda and her husband, Pete, met Paul at a Sunday dinner outreach to the homeless, and a couple of months later he moved into their home and they were instrumental to Paul’s life turning around. People often ask Glenda “Why Paul?” As they share their life experiences you’ll understand why!

Glenda Jansen's message is clear about what works:

  • Relationship
  • Grace
  • Advocacy
  • Diagnosis
  • Self Care
  • Hope

"Hope is passion for what it possible." Søren Kierkegaard

I welcome you to join me with a hot cup of coffee and your notebook as we settle in and listen to Jerrod Brown, Ph.D., MA, MS, MS, MS talk about the HPA Axis. Prenatal alcohol expoure is an assult to fetal development. In this episode of Dr. Jerrod Brown will explain the damage to the body's stress response system by prental alcohol exposure which often results in HPA Axis Dysfunction.
"The hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis is the system of interactions among the hypothalamus, pituitary gland, and adrenal glands. The primary role of the HPA axis is to
regulate a person’s response to stressful events and situations. Specifically, the HPA axis is
critical is assessing potential threats, initiating neuroendocrine responses when appropriate, and facilitating recovery after any potential threats have receded. Unfortunately, exposure to severe and/or repeated trauma, particularly during childhood, can result in HPA axis dysfunction across the lifespan." - Jerrod Brown
Jerrod Brown is a regular guest on the FASD Family Life podcast.

Welcome to Season 4, episode 22 of the FASD Family Life Podcast. This is the only show about FASD hosted by an FASD Specialist and parent with 30 years lived experience. I am Robbie Seale, your host and mom to five incredible people; including three teens diagnosed with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder. It is my passion to help families thrive. To learn more about me and my work check out my website, https://fasdfamilylife.ca/
Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) refers to a constellation of disorders resulting from prenatal exposure to alcohol; the manifestations include birth defects, developmental disabilities, and neurological and behavioral problems.
Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder is a common disability impacting 1 in 20 people in the general population in the US, which is nearly 3 times more common than Autism.

This week I am in the Netherlands where it is estimated that 2000 babies annually are born with FASD.
I am speaking with Nienke Peters and Luke Schut to learn about an innovative photo book project that they have been involved in to raise awareness of Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder in Holland.
Luke Schut is the Project coordinator of the FAS-project. Her background is in pedagogics. She came in contact with the FAS-project through her Masters program. Luke says "I am the most inspired by all these parents and caregivers, and the warm and caring FASD community. Let’s keep sharing stories with each other to make FASD more visible."
Nienke Peters is mother of 4 bio kids and grandmother of 4. Fostered 12 children with FASD and still fostering a boy with FASD and NAS. Met Allard de Witte in 2014 when he photographed one of our foster sons. Her family has been part of the Buddy Project of Witte Bos for over 4 years now.
‘Het Witte Bos’ is a non-profit organization, which initiates transmedia project on the cutting edge of journalism, art and society. The FAS-project started as a journalistic initiative, but eventually developed into a big multimedia awareness campaign, showing the potentially dangerous consequences of alcohol consumption during pregnancy. By storytelling, the project raises attention to a relatively unknown problem in a personal way. The FAS-project started in 2013 and launched with the book FAS-kinderen (Children with FAS).
After this the fas-project continued under the name FAS2025. In the past years the project developed and gained a wider reach & more impact.
FAS2025 tells the story of Isiah, Lorenzo, Marcella, Mila and Jasmijn, following their journey towards adulthood for ten years. Their stories are told by a collection of stories, portraits and mini-documentaries. To give children with FAS(D) a face, make FAS(D) less abstract and to tell what FAS(D) means to them and how it impacts their lives. The project also consists of expositions, books, a podcast, a college tour to inform future professionals about FAS, readings at professional organizations who (may) come in contact with FAS(D), and a buddy project in which children/youngsters with FAS(D) are matched to a buddy to have a nice time together.
