76: For Parents After a New Diagnosis - Should We Focus on Home or School First?
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
After a new diagnosis, many parents feels pressure to start making changes everywhere - at home, at school, and in between. But trying to do everything at once often leads to more overwhelm, not more support.
In this episode, I'm speaking directly to parents who are wondering where to begin. We explore a helpful question - where is my child working hardest right now? - and why the answer isn't always a s straightforward as it seems. .If you're unsure where to put your energy, this episode offers a way to think clearly and compassionately about what you and your child need most right now.
