Listen "Turning Struggle into Strength"
Episode Synopsis
Being a dad of a child with a disability comes with a higher degree of difficulty and at times can feel like you are trying to execute a handstand inverted pike, triple somersault of the 10m platform. Life is full of challenges and it's totally normal, and understood that you will struggle from time to time. Strength does not come from winning. Your struggles develop your strength, you need to look within yourself and stay present as a dad to how your child is progressing and developing from their struggles too. We all gain strength through practice and making efforts to learn from previous behaviours and mistakes. I share this honest and raw account of a recent struggle and the opportunity this adversity created to build strength for both me and my son.
