Christmas doesn’t always look the way we imagined it would - especially when you’re parenting a child with autism.

In this Christmas episode, we talk honestly about what the season looks like in our home. Our son Timmy doesn’t sit quietly by the tree opening presents - he’s usually running laps through the house instead. And while it can be tempting to compare our Christmas to others, comparison is quick to steal joy if we let it.

Together, we turn our hearts back to the true meaning of Christmas. Scripture reminds us that...

 In this episode, I open my heart about the tension many special-needs moms feel: we know God can heal-Scripture tells us He does-but what do we do when He hasn’t healed our child?

We walk through the story in Mark 5, where the woman with the issue of blood reaches for the hem of Jesus’ garment, believing completely in His power to heal. And we remember the promise in Hebrews that Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and forever-His compassion and power haven’t changed.

But the reality of disability can make th...

In this episode, I open up about my lifelong struggle with anxiety - how it intensified when I became a mom, and how it grew even heavier as I learned to navigate parenting an autistic child. The fears, the “what ifs,” the sleepless nights. they can feel overwhelming and isolating.

But this is also a story of hope.

I share how God has met me in the moments when my chest is tight and my thoughts are racing, and how He has shown me again and again that He is with us today and already ahea...

In this episode, we explore a tender picture of God’s heart for our children -especially those who experience the world differently. Through Mark 10, we imagine Jesus walking straight to our dysregulated or overwhelmed child, meeting them with compassion and understanding.

Be encouraged: no ability, limitation, or struggle can separate our children from the love of God. He sees them, loves them, and welcomes them. May this episode bring hope, peace, and the reminder that God is with your child - exactly where they are.

In this episode, I share why Jesus’ healing ministry in the Gospels means so much to me, especially in seasons of loneliness and struggle. I open up about my journey as an autism mom - the longing to connect with my son, the grief and hope that come with his diagnosis, and how easily isolation can take hold. We talk about how the enemy uses those quiet moments to discourage us and why taking small, simple steps back toward community and support can make all the difference. This is an honest conversation about faith, healing, motherhood, and finding courage wh...

In this episode, we open up about one of the hardest parts of parenting a child with special needs: letting go of the dreams we once had for them - and learning to embrace the new ones God is giving us.

I share how therapy has been a powerful part of my healing journey, reminding us that it’s completely okay to have both Jesus and a therapist. As special needs parents, we carry unique challenges, and having a safe space to process them is a gift of strength, not weakness.

We’ll also talk abou...

If you’ve ever found yourself awake in the middle of the night, heart racing with questions like “What happens when my child turns 18?” or “Will they ever talk?” you’re not alone. Parenting is already hard, but parenting a child with special needs can feel overwhelming, isolating, and sometimes even impossible.
