And that was kind of the beginning of the journey of self discovery, advocacy, all the things.
So fast forward, I'm doing research, I'm reading the books, I'm doing all the things, we're getting the calls from school, and you just slowly, slowly, slowly start to piece things together.
My boys have very, you know, three very different brains, different learning styles.
And I was a social worker and I worked primarily with families.
And
What I noticed was the labels that were labeling, you know, children's behavior, but nobody was actually like stepping back and like saying,
If we're looking at behavior as a language, what is it saying to us rather than projecting this judgment onto child's behavior or a human behavior in general?
And then what I noticed, I was like, oh, this is like something that I'm on to.
Like people don't get it for some reason.
Left my job, started podcasting, started doing all the things, and been coaching for 10 years.
Well, ten plus years, but it was actually ten years ago when I was diagnosed with a stage four cancer that was an interesting shift in my conversation because
I was so focused on parent child.
Because that's what they were telling me they wanted help with, which is like behavior, behavior, behavior.
And I'm like, okay, let's focus on the child.
Let's focus on the child.
Like they're the ones who need help.
This is what we're saying, this happening.
And then the parent would say to me, or the I primarily work with mothers, would say to me, I don't have time, I don't have energy, my career's falling apart, my marriage is falling apart, my mental health is deteriorating.
And I'm like, okay, but come back, come back.
After my diagnosis, I was like, ladies, we need to stop pretending that our needs don't matter.
