Episode 9: Searching for Support: A Mum's Battle with the System


Listen Later

In this powerful episode, Sarah is joined by Carol — a mum who has spent years fighting for the right support for her son living with ARFID (Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder).

Together, they dive into the emotional, exhausting, and often frustrating journey of navigating services that weren’t built with ARFID in mind. Carol shares the battles she’s faced, the barriers she’s pushed through, and the strength it takes to advocate when your child’s needs aren’t understood.

This episode shines a light on the reality many families face and reminds listeners that they are not alone. Full of honesty, resilience, and hope, Carol’s story is one every parent, professional, and ally should hear.
