FASD Family Life
FASD Family Life podcast is where we get REAL about raising children and youth with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder. I am Robbie Seale, the host and producer of the FASD Family Life Podcast. I'm so glad that you found this podcast.
I am not a social worker or a psychologist. I am a mom who snuck into conferences, scoured the internet, read books, attended for webinars and workshops because I was desperate to learn everything I could about Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder and trauma. Why? Because my family was in crisis!
What I learned changed EVERYTHING!
I want to share what I learned with you, parent to parent. I know the struggle is real, and so is success! To hear my story listen to season 1, episode 10.
The FASD Family Life podcast will encourage, educate, and equip you to become a confident caregiver of your loved one with FASD and trauma. You will discover the source of challenging behaviours, how to care for yourself amid the stress, and learn practical strategies to improve life for you and your loved one with FASD.
If you have a comment or a question email me at FASDFamilyLife@gmail.com.
I'd love to hear from you!

FASD Awareness on the Rise in Scotland
Welcome to FASD Family Life, the podcast where we get REAL about raising children and youth with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder. I am your host, Robbie Seale, mom of five children; four by adoption, each prenatally exposed to alcohol, substances, and trauma. My kids and I know the struggle is REAL and so is success.
I hope that by sharing my experiences and training you will not feel so alone. There is hope for you and your child with FASD. Let me tell you how one episode at a time. We are in this together.
This week my guest, Maryelen McPhail, will share her journey as an adoptive mother needing support to creating a not for profit Oshay's FASD to support others in her community in Scotland. Desperation often is the mother of invention!
Oshay's FASD is run by mother and daughter team, Maryelen and Paula McPhail. Oshay's FASD offers parenting classes, supports for families, child/youth programs and FASD training.
Including FASCETS 6 part webinar series beginning Sept 8th. I have included the Oshay's FASD link below if you want more information.
Maryelen says the team at Oshay's are excited to put on their RED SHOES this September and get out there make FASD known in their community.
