I had the pleasure of hosting an engaging conversation with Courtney Shanley, a parent and professional caseworker in the special needs community. Courtney and I delved into the multifaceted world of special needs parenting, exploring the importance of inclusive environments and the emotional complexities parents navigate. 

We also tackled the practical aspects, such as advocating for educational and financial support. Our discussion illuminated both the challenges and joys of special needs parenting, ranging from managing impulsive behaviors to understanding the intricacies of IEPs and Medicaid waivers. 

This episode, peppered with laughter and heartfelt conversation, fosters a sense of community for those raising extraordinary children and provides a fresh perspective for those seeking to understand the special needs journey. 

Join Courtney and me as we share our personal experiences, provide guidance, and highlight the power of community.
