Episode Synopsis

Listen into my conversation with Gemma Cardona, founder of Paddy’s Purpose, who joins us from the UK. Gemma is a mom of 3, with her son Patrick with disabilities and how that’s changed her world and sparked a fire in her to speak out on disability for a more inclusive world. 
She also bravely shares:
-Her unique journey of combatting her own health issues related to caring for her son
-How she hopes to make a positive impact moving forward with access to resources and information
-What she would tell other parents in her shoes about grief, time, and navigating your journey with balance between caregiver versus parent. 
We dive into so many topics - all of which are not typically spoken about. Hope you all enjoy this conversation as much as I did! You can find Gemma on social media @ Paddy’s Purpose for more information!
