You know how a school break for kids with disabilities isn’t exactly a “break” for us parents? That’s what we unpacked in this week’s podcast—a Community Huddle with four incredible moms. We shared the highs, lows, and the sometimes hilarious moments of navigating life after winter break.
Here’s a sneak peek at what we talked about:
- Recalibrating routines: From feeling discombobulated to juggling priorities, we explored how to ease back into schedules when life feels chaotic.
- Parenting challenges: One mom shared the delicate balance of supporting a child who needs constant supervision, while another opened up about managing aggressive behaviors at home.
- Self-care guilt: Why do we feel so guilty for taking a moment for ourselves? And how do we get past that? Sometimes, it’s as simple as shaking off the stress (literally!).
- Stress-relief strategies: One favorite moment was hearing how a mom used a “shaking and dancing” exercise to reset after a tough day—it’s simple, fun, and it works!
- Community connection: The best advice and encouragement often come from other moms who truly understand this journey.
