Podcast Alert! The Motion of Gratitude Podcast

Navigating Parenthood, Neurodiversity & Planning for the Future

In this powerful episode, I sit down with Shannon from The Motion of Gratitude to talk about my journey as a father to a neurodivergent child and how that transformed not just our family’s life but my professional path as well. I share how moving from denial to empowerment shaped our approach to planning for the future, both emotionally and practically.

We dive deep into:

• The emotional shift from denial to acceptance

• Why curiosity becomes a superpower for exhausted parents

• Misconceptions about insurance planning for special needs families

• How life insurance & disability income protection can make a world of difference

• The Special Needs Collective, a growing directory of trusted support for parents

It’s an episode filled with heart, hope, and practical wisdom, especially if you're navigating the journey of raising a neurodivergent child or supporting families in that space.
