Take Heart
About us
Amy, Carrie, and I have a combined experience of over thirty-five years of parenting children with disabilities, complex medical and special needs. Each of our paths is extremely unique, and we are continually learning, making mistakes, but finding joy along the way.
Each month, we will explore and discuss a theme that impacts caregivers. We also have some incredible guests who share their expertise! We will bring our unique perspectives, hard-earned lessons. Our mission is to create space for connection, hope, and joy as a mom to a child with disabilities or special needs.
In May 2023, we released our first book, The Other Side of Special: Navigating the Messy, Emotional Joy-Filled Life of a Special Needs Mom. In this book, we do not offer quick fixes. Instead, we will provide understanding, compassion, and solidarity, knowing God is present even amid difficult and messy emotions.
