"The best way out was through."

About This Episode: It's Father Friday!!!  I had a great conversation with Dad Andrew and I just loved what he had to say about raising a neurodivergent child. Here are just some of the things we discussed:

-Going through the grieving process but not getting stuck in it
-Making the decision to give your child the best chance to thrive
-Deciding on whether or not to move locations to help your kid
-Finding just a little more patience and energy to handle tough moments
-Why you shouldn't go right to bed after your kids do
-Having a healthy relationship with your hobbies
