In this episode, I’m joined by online nutritionist and life coach Sonya Reynolds. With over 16 years of experience and a personal connection to her work, Sonya shares her journey of navigating life after her child’s epilepsy and intellectual disability diagnoses. We talk about the emotional weight of receiving medical news and the strength it takes to advocate for your child, and Sonya opens up about the realities of parenting a child with an invisible disability.

In this episode, we explore:

  • Sonya’s journey that led her to specialise in natural epilepsy management
  • Parenting a child with a disability
  • Advocating for our children’s health
  • Processing the rollercoaster of emotions when you receive medical news
  • What Sonya’s everyday family life looks like
  • Common misconceptions about epilepsy
  • Social impacts of invisible disabilities
  • Using Facebook support groups
