21 | How Raising a Neurodivergent or Medically Complex Child Pulls You Into Your Power
*This podcast is evolving to focus on faith, prayer, and hope for moms raising autistic or medically complex children. Episodes from our earlier parenting-focused series are still here to help, but you’ll now find guidance rooted in Christian faith and prayer.*

Raising an autistic child, a child with a rare disease, or a child with complex medical needs will break you open, but it will also pull you into the most powerful version of yourself. In this raw, unfiltered episode of The Be Mighty Mom Podcast, we explore how parenting in the trenches strips away who you were told to be and reveals who you were always meant to become.
We talk about the early days of diagnosis, the grief of losing relationships, the identity shift of special needs parenting, and the unexpected way our children become both our mirrors and our catalysts. This is not a how-to or a list of strategies; it’s a reckoning with the truth that motherhood in this space is equal parts grief and glory, loss and liberation.
If you’ve ever felt like you were disappearing under the weight of advocacy, judgment, or isolation, this conversation will remind you: you are not broken, you are becoming. And your voice, the one your child helped you find, is the one the world needs most.
