Let's Be Real - Mama Journeys - Episode 71 W/Dru Ahlborg

Dru Ahlborg was an older mama at the ages of 37 and 40.  She could not believe they let her drive away from the hospital with a newborn all by herself! Who said she was ready for this?  Her oldest son had to go through many feed therapists and had a lot of her first years as a new mom were exploring foods and getting him to get through his food issues, which centered around textures. It was a big challenge as a new mom. As her kids grow she is learning that moms and daughters can have some challenges that can make or break you. As a mom, sometimes we say the things that don't serve our kids and we need to listen and support them. She runs the Bullying Recovery Resource Center to give parents support when they need help with bullying of their kids. Their mission is to defend bullied kids and help them rebuild their lives. They teach and coach parents in advocacy for their kids' mental health. They do a lot of education and partner with mental health agencies as well as neurodiverse groups.
