What happens when your child’s life path, diagnosis, or identity doesn’t match the future you dreamed of?

In this honest, episode of Motherhood and the Messy Middle, we talk about what it’s like to parent a child whose journey—because of neurodivergence, mental health, or other challenges—looks different than expected.

Whether you’re raising a child with special needs, or simply holding space for a different kind of motherhood, you’ll find support and hope here.

✨ Topics we explore:
— Quiet grief and unspoken mom guilt
— Letting go of expectations in parenting
— Accepting your child for who they are
— The power of curiosity and compassion

This conversation is tender, relatable, and rooted in grace. If you’ve ever whispered “this isn’t what I pictured,” this episode is for you.

🎧 Listen now and share with a mom who needs encouragement in the messy middle of parenting.
