Are you like our guest today – riding the bus of denial? Knowing your loved one has FASD but then doubting the diagnosis or thinking it is something else when they “seem” to be functioning as a neurotypical. It can be an exhausting journey. But if you want to learn how to get off that bus, and find success, join Patti Crouch and me. 

Patti is the adoptive mother of three children.  When she can, she hosts the "The Denial Bus" podcast, where she shares real and raw talk and interviews from parents and professionals that have a touch with adoption, trauma, and different needs kids. 

Today we talk about Patti’s journey to becoming a mom, a stand-up comedian and hosting a podcast. As well as: 

  • Delving into why she turned to comedy and how it helped her out of a dark place. 
  • All about her podcast: The Denial Bus and the importance of creating community. 
  • How she came to meet Rob Lowe and if his eyes are really that blue. 
  • Aha moments that helped her stay off the denial bus and lessons learned over the years. 

You know when you think you know someone, then you find out you really don’t know them or find a piece of their personality you didn’t know was there? I found that out with Patti today. I knew she was funny, but I didn’t realize how deep and reflective that comedic side can be. I think you are going to find her story relatable and quotable.
