Something Like Therapy

On today’s episode, Derick and Jessica open up about the realities of raising children with special needs — the challenges, the small victories, and the lessons learned along the way. From navigating medical appointments and early intervention meetings to celebrating every milestone, they share their personal journey and the emotional rollercoaster that comes with parenting in a world that isn’t always built for inclusion.

In today's episode, Derick and Jess dive deep into the mindset of the “victim society” — a culture where blame, entitlement, and helplessness often take center stage. They explore how this mentality shows up in everyday life, why it can be so damaging to growth and resilience, and most importantly, how to break free from it.

Expect raw conversation, practical tools, and empowering insights to help you shift from a victim mindset into a place of responsibility, strength, and freedom. This isn’t about dismissing real struggles — it’s about reclaiming your power to respond, rebuild, and rise.
