Ringing in the new year with success stories! Podcast episode 258

Happy new year!! As you climb out from underneath tinsel, and excess, and cranky kiddos, I wanted to share some success stories. I hope to inspire you, right at the beginning of the year, by giving you some stories where things, well, turned out okay, to use the pun that I always swore I would never use (and have indeed not used until this very moment : ) So, today's is a re-broadcasted conversation, originally recorded way back in 2016, in which I spoke to dad and educator Erik Wagter. Erik's story is special: he and his wife are raising an autistic son, and early on they were told he would never lead anything like a normal life. And they are helping him, every day, to lead a wonderful, if not completely normal, life. Besides, whose life is "normal"? "Normal is just a setting on the washing machine" – one of my favorite quotes ever. Also, I'm sharing two stories of success from our exclusive private coaching community, the Ninja Parenting Community. Stories of parents just like you, and how they handled it when the going got tough. I hope you find today's success stories episode inspiring and helpful!
