What do you do when your child's interests don't fit into the norm? What happens when letting go of expectations opens the door to joy, creativity, and purpose?

In today's episode, I'm joined by the incredibly wise and wonderfully honest Kim Cusimano, a mom of four, including her son Nate—who just so happens to be a full-blown Elvis tribute artist. Kim shares how a journey that began with confusion and insecurity eventually became one of the greatest blessings in her motherhood.

We talk about:

• Raising a child with developmental delays and "differing abilities"

• The surprising path that Elvis took their family on

• Letting go of pride, control, and comparison

• How God used Nate's passion to bring joy to senior homes and strangers

• The powerful role moms play in reflecting God's light onto their children

Whether you're a mom navigating special needs, raising a child with "outside-the-box" interests, or simply struggling with what feels like a different path—this conversation will fill your heart with encouragement and remind you: God's plans are always bigger, better, and more creative than our own.
