ACT LIKE A MOTHER

Kim Griffin Hasn't Got Time for Shame


Listen Later

Welcome to Season 3!

Actor Kim Griffin did not move to LA to further her own career. After her daughter's diagnosis with Prader-Willi syndrome, Kim moved her family of 4 across the country in order to have access to the services (and the sunshine) that would benefit her two children.

Kim shares openly about her high-risk pregnancies, the special needs of her kids, her own mental health, and the daunting financial circumstances she and her actor husband continue to find solutions for.

Kim is an articulate advocate for women and caregivers learning to ask for and receive services that many of us don't even know are available. She is a powerful example of what it is to put her kids' needs first, to release any shame associated with receiving help, and to appreciate life under a different set of metrics.

This is a story of forging a creative path no matter what, paying it forward, and the miracle of a moms' Facebook group.
