About Sara Miriam Smith
Sara Miriam is a mom to five and is no stranger to all things messy. While getting her masters degree in Special Education, she became fascinated in the crucial role sensory play takes in child development. Things turned personal when one of her children struggled with sensory processing difficulties and received an ADHD diagnosis. She started incorporating sensory materials into her everyday life and saw incredible advances in her child's emotional and physical development and overall comfort. Sensory play has since become a staple at home as a way to play, connect, and have fun!

I love people and I love hearing their stories. I want to know who they are, how they got there, what didn’t go as expected, and what they did about it. That passion and curiosity led me to create “Totally Unexpected!” I've had my own fair share of unexpected twists and turns; a permanent infertility diagnoses, five adopted children with varying degrees of challenges, and co-directing Chabad-Lubavitch of Montana with my husband. I embrace all these parts of who I am, as challenging as that is sometimes, and that's how I am able to thrive through it all.
I will be releasing episodes every other Monday, featuring interviews with people who inspire me. There will also be a Q&A segment to address questions and topics that you guys want me to talk to about. Look out for the prompt in my Insta stories and go crazy!
