Summer was delayed and would require intensive therapy to walk, use her hands, and speak. We would later find out she had autism and a rare genetic disease. In and out of doctor’s appointments, my personality changed. I became sarcastic, passive aggressive, and felt lost and unhappy. I told myself I couldn't improve my life because my daughter’s intellectual disability wouldn’t change. So, I held my head high and suppressed my emotions.
Then one day, I had a panic attack at work and was carried out of the office on a stretcher. My body forced me to see I was not okay. I was stressed, overwhelmed and impatient. I knew my kids deserved a better version of me. As did I. That set off a 9-year journey towards emotional healing and self-care that got me to where I am today. Here with you, sharing my lessons learned so that you can skip over the years of trial and error and the struggle that I went through so you can take control of your life and experience joy.
