Our special guest this week on SPED Homeschool Conversations was Steve Donofrio, a motivational speaker specializing in self-protection, personal and workplace harmony, and fitness and the lead author of the book Mama Manual (a book for mothers about family and personal protection). Steve shared on "Growing Confidence Amid Life's Setbacks" Some of the things covered in this hour are how to get beyond other people's judgmental comments about your parenting and towards our child, how to deal with constantly changing schedules, and what to do when you lack the motivation to keep going. It is an inspiring hour, filled with real "how-to" practical advice hitting on some of the toughest places in a special needs parent's journey.
