Family Stories: From Crisis to Confidence (feat. Charlene)

Charlene shares her journey navigating her daughter's BPD alongside some really complex family dynamics that continue to impact their lives today. We touch on the challenges they faces as a family and the key role that peer support and learning had for both her growth as a mother and her ability to support her daughter. Charlene is a facilitator of Sashbear's Family Connections program which you can learn about here. Join Laurie at the Sashbear Walk in Burnaby on May 9th 2026!
