Bullying, Boundaries & Being Mindful: What We’re Teaching Our Kids

In this episode, we open up about the everyday language and habits our kids pick up from us, often without us realizing it. While bullying is a big cultural conversation, we focus on the quieter, subtler moments at home: the jokes we make, the words we choose, the way we talk about other people, and how those choices shape the way our kids treat others, including their siblings with disabilities. We discuss what it means to be intentional role models, how to correct outdated or insensitive language, and how to build a home where empathy is the norm. Along the way, we share honest stories, small shifts that make a big impact, and the lessons we’re still learning ourselves. Grab a drink, pull up a seat, and join the conversation.

More Than Caregivers and Moms

Bonus
In this bonus episode, we step outside our roles as disability parents and talk about us. The things we love, the things that light us up, the parts of our identities that existed long before diagnoses, appointments, and advocacy, and the ones we’re still rediscovering now. Caregiving can be all-consuming, and it’s easy to feel like your entire identity gets swallowed by the role. This conversation is a reminder that we are still whole people: women with interests, opinions, humor, and dreams beyond caregiving. Whether you’re a parent, caregiver, or someone who’s felt yourself get lost along the way, this episode is an invitation to reconnect with us, and maybe with yourself too.
