As we celebrate the release of our new book, The Other Side of Special, we share about how we met and what we have learned as we have spent time together collaborating on the book and our podcast. Even though our children have very different diagnoses, we have realized we have so much in common which lends itself to caring for each other! Being vulnerable with each other but more importantly, in writing this book, can be difficult but we have seen God’s redemption in those stories which motivates us to continue. We have been so encouraged by your support of us and want to celebrate with you! Ep.127; May 9, 2023Key Moments:[0:20] Our book, The Other Side of Special, is here today![4:42] Join us at the “Lake House”[11:30] We learn empathy by hearing others' stories[20:35] The importance of being honest about emotions[25:42] Our book is not a ‘how-to’[26:50] Pay attention to our body and name those emotionsResources:Purchase the Other Side of SpecialEpisode 100: Story Behind Take HeartIf you enjoyed the show:Subscribe to our newsletter on the Take Heart WebsiteGet our free resource on finding Gratitude, Peace, and HopeReview and like us on Apple Podcasts Share us with others from wherever you listen to podcastsFollow us on Instagram @takeheartspecialmomsFind Amy at www.amyjbrown.com/  or on Instagram @amyjbrown_writerFind Carrie at www.carriemholt.com or on Instagram @carriemholtFind Sara at www.saraclime.com or on Instagram @saraclimeTake Heart is supported by our listeners.
