Letting Go Of The Life We Expected - with Mandy

Letting Go of the Life We Expected — with Mandy

Sometimes accepting our child means letting go of the picture we had in our minds of what family life would look like.

In this episode, I’m talking with Mandy about her journey of learning to accept her child for who they are, while finding a way forward when parenting doesn't look quite the way she imagined. Mandy shares about her family's experience of homeschooling, the role her faith has played in her journey, and the different choices they've made along the way to meet the needs of their family. When our children have different needs, sometimes we need to be willing to make different — and sometimes bold — choices. Choices that may look very different from what is considered the “norm”, but make sense for the child and family in front of us. 

It's a conversation about letting go, embracing what is, and discovering that a different path doesn't necessarily mean a lesser one.

Real people. Real stories. Real hope.
