"Safety cannot be the reason why a place is not a good fit."
About This Episode: It's Mama Monday! This week, I'm talking with mom Lauren. I loved this whole conversation and I know you will too! Here are just some of the topics we discussed:
-The realization that not everyone is on your team
-How daycare settings can have a lack of safety protocols and understanding from educators about neurodivergent children.
-The use of correct educational terminology to effectively communicate a child's needs.
-The importance of fostering curiosity and perseverance in your child's educational journey.
- The dilemma of choosing between different school options
-The transition from physical outbursts to verbal ones and the need for independent regulation skills.
Please shower Lauren with love and support by SHARING this episode with a mom who needs to hear her story. You can email Lauren at: [email protected]
**Exciting news! I'm launching a newsletter! I love connecting with you guys – through email, in my Instagram DMs, and in my Mothers Together community, and of course here on the show. But recently I realized that I’d love to be able to provide you with a one-stop-shop where I can share ALL the things – from products we use in my home to accounts I follow to personal stories about my life as a mom of neurodivergent kids. My newsletter, called the “On The Hard Days” newsletter, is the best way to do that!
In addition to sharing pieces of my life and my favorites with you, this newsletter gives YOU the chance to share what’s on your heart! I’ll be accepting your original work – whether it’s a poem, a piece of art, a short story about a recent win you had, or even a video of your original music, to put into the newsletter! I’m also going to share your recommended self-care tips (you know, real self-care that’s practical for moms like us), links to my new merch, and more! I’m really excited about this, honestly.
The only thing I need from you in order to get the newsletter to you is your email address. To send that my way, you have a couple of options. Go to ontheharddays.com/newsletter to put your email address there or you can DM me on Instagram @ on the hard days, with dots in between each word, and say “newsletter” with your email address in the message.
The On The Hard Days newsletter launches soon, so get on my email list asap! As always, thank you so much for your endless support. I hope I can continue to provide you the same validation you guys give me!
I ALWAYS welcome YOUR thoughts! Feel free to DM me on IG (@on.the.hard.days) or email me: [email protected]. This podcast is what it is because of YOU.
And speaking of the podcast, YOU all recently got my show to over 165K downloads. Thank you!
The best way to keep this podcast download streak is to:
1) Subscribe to the podcast - your device will automatically download new episodes!
2) Share the show with others - think therapists, pediatricians, and teachers!
3) Leave a rating/review for the show - the Apple algorithm will push the show out to more moms who need the support and validation!
THANK YOU, so very much, for your continued support!
