T21Mom: Episode 155-When It Gets Better (Because Sometimes...it Does)

About this episode

Mary shares a life update reflecting on her experiences over the past year, including challenges and positive shifts.

After a little post-Christmas hiatus (and recovering from hosting 26 people...send help :), Mary is back with a life update, and wow, there's a lot to share! In this episode, Mary catches you up on what's been happening in her world, from holiday memories and reunions with dear friends, to big transitions at school and the emotional rollercoaster of navigating challenging behaviours, and of course, World Down Syndrome Day! Last year was, quite honestly, one of the hardest that Mary has ever had. Between intense behaviours, constant dysregulation, and just trying to keep it all together, it pushed Mary to her limits. But something shifted and she wants to share that with you, because if you're in a season of hard right now, you need to hear this.
