Karen Smith, an Iowa Mental Health Advocate and mother of two, joins Abbey and Dottie to discuss parenting children with mental health struggles. Dottie and Karen are brutally honesty about their struggles, mistakes, and lessons learned from raising children with anxiety, depression, and other mental health challenges.  We hope that other parents are able to listen to this podcast and realize that they are not alone and, hopefully, see themselves in these stories!

Most information about Karen Smith can be found on Facebook.
