The FASD Success Show
Jeff Noble thought he knew all about FASD... until he became a full time FASD Foster Parent. Fast forward to now. Jeff has been coast to coast and from one side of the earth to the other talking, teaching and learning about FASD with other Caregivers, Front Line Staff and anyone who might sit and listen to him.

Pretty much all the things you need to know so that you can focus on being a happy, balanced caregiver. Jeff will make you laugh, he will make you think, but mostly he will give you hope that you CAN do this. Hit subscribe and get ready to transform into the FASD Caregiver you know you can be.

Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Micheal Harris is a Licensed Psychologist and FASD Speaker. He also happens to be a foster parent to a now adult on the Spectrum.
During this pandemic we know not only individuals with FASD are anxious, but so are caregivers. In order to reduce anxiety, he tells us, “You need to define it and name it before you can move forward” and support your children.
In this podcast you will learn:
- What is anxiety?
- The six types of anxiety.
- A two step plan for getting off the anxiety loop.
- What the greatest protective factor is for combating caregiver anxiety.
In addition Michael and I talk about ideas to lower your anxiety so you can support your child’s learning at home, the importance of self care for yourself and how/where to find time for it.
I’m glad he brings the “woo woo” to you. Following his advice will help you find confidence in your parenting again.
