I love this podcast so much, it’s enlightening and validating. I’ve really been through the mill with my daughter and consider myself a good advocate but I am learning new language and adding to my arsenal with this podcast every week. The system’s broken, but we are stronger together. Also lots of good laughs too. Thank you!
Just such a great conversation today on trauma I had to write and say. Thank you for tackling this tricky conversation with humour and honesty. I had a lot of truth filled and illuminating realisations whilst listening. Dr Joanna Griffin is brilliant as a guest and thank you for the podcast.
Parenting a child with disability can sometimes feel like an overwhelming journey. This podcast was a brilliant discovery for me and has helped me through so much - it’s so brilliant to hear parent carers in a range of different situations discuss the highs and lows. It’s also hilariously funny.
