Think your child may have a mental health challenge but you're not sure?? This episode is a mom's story and perspective. Kristi Gates; a professional equestrian,  rider and trainer and mother of one daughter, started noticing unusual behavior in her daughter when she was 11 years old. She was diagnosed with bipolar disorder, sent out the door with a cocktail of medications and continued to suffer with suicidal thoughts, sometimes requiring physical restraint. Today, her daughter Cassie is a married adult in a successful career and has a daughter of her own. (She shared her story here in Episode 14, so make sure you hear it. She's fantastic!) This episode is for the Moms who feel tired, confused, and maybe scared. Kristi offers her insight and some great tips to help you navigate your parenting journey.I love hearing from you!
