Description

Have you ever seen another child and thought, “Man. If only my child had that diagnosis. Things would be so much easier because…”? We have too. It’s a totally ridiculous thing to feel jealousy over, but it’s something our brains do, nonetheless. Whether it’s the plethora of existing research, the resources available, or the name that most people know, there seems to be a lot to envy when it comes to more common diagnoses.
In this episode, Kara examines this and other strange things our brains do in response to trauma with her life coach lens. We also conclude that the antidote to this isolating mindset is finding other parents who we can relate with on other levels.
