    Episode 6: Surprise Doses Of Reality
    Jan 25 2025
    This is a deep episode. I wasn’t sure where the words would take me. You will learn about the adapted vehicle and how it produced another opportunity to adapt to life’s challenges as a special needs parent. Sometimes things come across your life in ways you don’t expect, at times you don’t expect. This was one of those times for me. I encourage you to embrace your feelings, work through challenges, and find grounding methods. I talk about the value of resilience and staying true to oneself despite hardships.
