  • Susanna Peace Lovell on her new book "Your True Self is Enough"

    Susanna Peace Lovell on her new book "Your True Self is Enough"

    We recently welcomed Susanna Peace Lovell to Unlimited Parenting to discuss her first published work Your True Self is Enough. We share insights, laughs and we hope you have just as much fun when you listen in. When acclaimed Life Coach Susanna Peace Lovell’s daughter was born, she brought some unexpected challenges, including autism spectrum disorder, ADHD, anxiety, and myriad food allergies. Looking for resources and support, Susanna struggled to find a map for the road ahead. After more than 17 years of struggle, hard work, and triumph, this book is that map: the blueprint for special needs caregivers that she’d wished for back then. Filled with hard-won insights and practical advice, Your True Self Is Enough follows Susanna’s story from pregnancy through neonatal care through finding the right learning environments and therapeutic plans for her child. Throughout it all, Susanna came to learn that she and her daughter were both on their own journeys in life, and that they were both whole and complete individuals who did not need to be “fixed.” More information on Susanna can be found on her website at, https://www.susannapeacelovell.com/. Her book is available for purchase at Amazon. Do you have feedback for "Unlimited Parenting"?
