E18: My Struggle With the Special Needs Umbrella


Listen Later

We all want to belong, we don’t want the embarrassment of being called out for not belonging. This is the place I’m coming to you today.

As a parent, I've known how my children need more than the average child and yet the term special needs child, as I knew it, did not fit the narrative at the time. 

This episode is about how I came to understand the term special needs and am learning to embrace the fact that I’m the mom of 2 girls who do fall under the umbrella.
