Hey y’all, welcome back to Holy Ground Parenting.

This week’s episode is all about celebrating the wins—even the small ones.

In the middle of therapies, appointments, and the day-to-day challenges of special needs parenting, it can be easy to focus on what’s still hard. But in this episode, we’re slowing down to recognize the progress that often goes unnoticed—the small steps that are actually big victories.

I’m sharing a recent “small win” with Evie as her communication continues to grow, and how moments like that remind me just how far she’s come.

This episode also feels especially meaningful because as it releases, our family is on the way to training to meet Evie’s service dog, Pearl. It’s a moment filled with hope, gratitude, and a reminder that so much of this journey is built on small beginnings.

We reflect on Psalm 126:3 and Philippians 4:8, grounding ourselves in the truth that God is at work in every step—even the ones that feel small.

If you’re in a season where progress feels slow or hard to see, I hope this episode encourages you to pause, look closer, and celebrate the growth that’s already happening.

Because those small wins? They matter more than you think.

Hey y’all, welcome back to Holy Ground Parenting.

In this episode, we’re talking about a part of the special needs parenting journey that often goes unspoken—loneliness.

The kind of loneliness that comes from feeling misunderstood… from having to constantly explain your child… and from navigating a life that looks different than what you once expected. It’s also the quiet moments of comparison—watching other families experience things that don’t come as easily for yours. Our anchor scripture this week comes from Deuteronomy 31:8 and our supporting scripture comes from Psalms 34:18.

In this episode, I’m sharing honestly about what that has looked like in our journey, including the mix of emotions that can come with it—guilt, sadness, frustration, and everything in between.

But we’re also holding onto truth: that even in those moments, we are not alone. God sees, He understands, and He walks with us in every part of this journey.

If you’ve ever felt alone in your parenting, this episode is for you.

As always, you are seen, you are supported, and you are not walking this road by yourself.

Hey y’all! Welcome back to Holy Ground Parenting.

In this episode, we’re talking about something that comes up often in the day-to-day life of special needs parenting—transitions.

From leaving places our kids love to navigating unexpected changes in routine, even small shifts can feel really big for children on the spectrum. Our anchor scripture this week comes from Proverbs 16:9.

We also reflect on Holy Week and the powerful reminder of how quickly things can shift—from celebration on Palm Sunday to the cross on Friday—and what that teaches us about trusting God in the middle of change.

If your child struggles with transitions, or if you’re walking through a season of change yourself, I hope this episode encourages you to trust that God is present in every step—even the unexpected ones.

As always, you are not alone in this journey.

Hey y’all! Welcome back to Holy Ground Parenting.

Have you ever had a moment in public where your child did something unexpected and suddenly you felt like everyone around you was watching?

For parents raising children with special needs, those moments can happen more often than we’d like. And sometimes the hardest part isn’t what our child did — it’s how other people respond.

In this episode, I share a real moment Evie and I experienced with a stranger that left me feeling protective, frustrated, and later… a little disappointed in myself. We talk about the pressure special needs parents often feel to explain our children to the world, and how we can extend grace to ourselves when those moments don’t go the way we wish they had. Our anchor scripture this week is 1 Samuel 16:7.

If you’ve ever walked away from a hard interaction wishing you had handled it differently, this episode is for you.

And as always, we’ll remind ourselves of a comforting truth: even when people don’t understand our children, God does.

Hey y’all! Welcome back to Holy Ground Parenting. I’m so glad you’re here.

This week’s episode is a little different because I’m welcoming my very first guest — my husband, Stephen.

Over the past few episodes, you’ve heard me share my heart about our journey through infertility, the NICU, autism, and the fears that can come with raising a child with special needs. But this journey didn’t just shape me — it shaped Stephen too.

In this conversation, Stephen shares what special needs parenting has looked like through a father’s eyes. We talk about the fears dads sometimes carry quietly, the responsibility that comes with loving and protecting a child with extra needs, and what it looks like to trust God with the future when there are still so many unknowns.

If you’re a parent walking this road — especially a dad who may not always say these things out loud — I hope this conversation reminds you that you’re not alone.

Hey y'all! Welcome back to Holy Ground Parenting. I'm so glad you're here! This week we are looking at what happens after the diagnosis. Our anchor scripture this week is Romans 8:1, and our supporting scripture is Esther 4:14 and Isaiah 43:1. I talk about the quiet lies we can sometimes tell ourselves, about the shame and doubt that can take over our thoughts, and about what we can do to find our identity in Christ again. I hope you get a blessing from it this week!
