of Don't Hide It, Flaunt It, a nonprofit with the mission of advancing understanding and mutual respect for people's differences. She is the author of Born Extraordinary: Empowering Children with Differences and Disabilities. Timestamps (00:00) Introduction
(04:50) Missteps and learnings (11:10) Experiencing failure (15:30) Correcting ourselves as parents (21:20) Difference vs disability (27:30) Being an advocate for yourself (32:30) Bullying (42:00) Self love (45:20) Last thoughts
Key Takeaways1. When having a child with a disability, often our first thought is to help them in every way possible to make life easier, because we want to be helpful. But, when we do everything, even the small things, we rob them of the experience of navigating problems on their
own. There is a balance in helping and letting our kids figure out hard situations on their own. 2. Having the strength of not letting what people think affect you will be the biggest tool in advocating for yourself. Practicing self love and confidence will empower you in facing whatever
life throws at you. Being open minded and considerate is always the best choice, regardless of what we look like. 3. This book and episode isn't just for those with disabled children. This is for parents who want to educate themselves and their children; for those who feel like they
don't belong and those who feel like they do. This book is for every audience to continue the conversation on embracing our differences. Connect with Meg Zucker Website: https://megzucker.com/ Born Extraordinary:
