Description

Join Patty Kikos as she delves into the inspiring journey of Louise, who stepped into the role of a young carer at just 13, navigating the challenges of her mother's grief and her brother's sorrow. Louise's story doesn't end there; she later became a devoted carer to her two wonderfully unique neurodivergent children. Now, as a compassionate counselor, Louise empowers other carers, sharing invaluable techniques to help them self-regulate and heal from their own traumas. This interview is a testament to resilience, love, and the power of support.
