The Power of Perspective: Amy, Carrie, and Sara Share Their Stories
Description
The Power of Perspective: Amy, Carrie, and Sara Share Their Stories
Summary: Amy, Carrie and Sara look back at their early years of parenting. They share the stories from the days of early diagnosis and what they thought back then…noting with humor how ridiculous it seemed back then. But looking at the early days has helped them appreciate how far they’ve come, giving them perspective. They discuss the concept of advocating for their child, the desire for control (even though they didn’t have it!) and the worry that they carried. They have found that this life really does hold grief and gratitude at the same time.
Key Moments:
[13:21 ] Not thinking through all the “what ifs”
[16:16 ] Advocating for our child
[20:54 ] Looking back, need to give ourselves grace
[34:43 ] Grief and gratitude
