✨ New Episode of Rockin’ the Difference ✨

Being a special needs parent means carrying an invisible load that most people never see. In this solo episode, I take you behind the scenes of my life as a single mom to my adult son—sharing the scheduling, the driving, the advocacy, and the emotional weight of planning for the future, all while balancing a full-time job and trying to care for myself, too. 💙

🎧 In this episode, I talk about:

  • The hidden daily work of special needs parenting
  • Navigating doctors, schools, and government agencies
  • The long-term planning no parent wants to face, but has to

    • This one’s for every caregiver who feels unseen—you are not alone. 💙
