Why is episode 100 being celebrated as a special milestone?
I love, love, love this part of my job. You know, not just getting to talk to so many incredible people, but I literally hear from people every day who stumbled upon the podcast and are so grateful they found it because for the first time, they feel like they have found their tribe or a resource that helps them feel optimistic and hopeful about their situation. And I want to create more of that. Welcome to the Tilt Parenting Podcast, a podcast featuring interviews and conversations aimed at inspiring, informing, and supporting parents raising differently wired kids. I'm your host, Debbie Reber, and today's episode features a conversation with... me. Today is episode 100. And so I'm doing things a little differently today.
What I decided to do is just kind of have a conversation with you like a couple of friends talking over coffee. And I will share some updates, answer questions, and share some lovely voices from our own community. Thank you so much for celebrating this milestone with me. And before I get to the episode, if you haven't downloaded it already, you can get a first look at my upcoming book, Differently Wired, Raising an Exceptional Child in a Conventional World on the Tilt Parenting website. I've made the first chapter called An Unmarked Path available. The chapter shares some of my personal story and it sets up the rest of the book, which I wrote to spark a revolution in the way differently wired kids and us as their parents and caregivers experience everyday life.
To read the excerpt, just visit TiltParenting.com and sign up right below the main image on the homepage, and I will send you a PDF of the first chapter, as well as the table of contents, right away. And now, without further ado, here is the 100th episode special. So, wow, the 100th episode of the podcast, this felt like such a big occasion to me. And it seemed like it called for something special, something different. But I wasn't sure exactly what to do. So what I decided to do is just have a conversation with you. As I said in the opening, just like we're going out to coffee, and I'm talking with you about what's happening in the Tilt Parenting universe. And I wanted to update you on what's happening here.
take you behind the scenes of the podcast, talk a little bit about my book, Differently Wired, which comes out in less than three months, and let you know when I'm planning for that, and then answer some of the questions that I've gotten from listeners. I'm also going to end the episode by sharing the Tilt Creed. If you're on the Facebook page, you likely saw that I put out a call to hear directly from you about the successes you've had in your world and other things that you wanted to share. So thank you so much to those of you who called in and left a voice message for me. And in fact, I just wanted to go ahead and kick off the episode by sharing those messages with you first. So here are some voices from our own Tilt community from really all around the world.
My name is Amanda Morin, and I have two sons who are differently wired. I think the success may actually be more mine than my kids. And it's the success of me starting to come out of the fog of worry and see the brightness through the fog. The older of my two sons is a wonderful photographer and videographer, as well as being a delightfully quirky kid. And for a long time, I worried because his quirkiness got in the way of making friends. But the other day, I realized that everywhere we go, people know him and other kids go out of their way to greet him. He's not just a kid with a camera anymore. He's Jacob, who takes photos for the yearbook, makes videos about community activist projects, and whom all the kids want to know.
And I love it. It's such a success.
I feel it's a win when I can hear my five-year-old daughter talk about her feelings and name her emotions before she gets into a difficult situation.
My big win is to have found the Tilt Parenting Community. Although we are based in the Netherlands, a country where we do not have IEPs or 504 plans, it helped my husband and I to make our own battle plan.
