I was invited to speak on the theme "expansion" at the event @Storiesthatstir, on the 24th February 2025. I know the lovely organiser, Monica, and I was honoured when she invited me to talk about our story.
This is the story of how becoming a special needs parent didn’t just expand our world—it catapulted us into a multiverse. One filled with fear, medical trauma, endless questions... but above all, with love.
I share our journey through rare disease diagnosis, NICU stays, open-heart surgery, and the terrifying uncertainties that come with Kabuki Syndrome. But I also share what gives me strength: a superhero metaphor that unexpectedly became my lifeline.
💚 If this story resonates, please share this podcast. You never know who might need to hear it today.
