057: Autism, ADHD, Sensory Processing Disorder & Perinatal Stroke w/ Jessica Temple

Welcome back badass moms! Today's episode features badass mom Jessica Temple. Jessica is a wife to her amazing husband and a mom to two little boys, Benji (4) and Alex (2). Jessica is on the show today to share her journey of raising two special needs boys. Benji has autism, ADHD & sensory processing disorder and Alex had a perinatal stroke.

We are going to chat all about:

- getting diagnosis for both kids
- advocating for our kids in the healthcare system
- disciplining a child with autism
- autism does not equal bad parenting
- what not to say to a special needs child/parent
- how to respond to people who say inappropriate things about your child
- therapies the boys did
- challenges and best parts
- balancing having two children with special needs
- advice for other parents

Jessica is SUCH a badass mom and I am so grateful that she came on the show to share her journey. As always, I highly recommend you check out Jessica's social media, podcast and website so you can see more of what she is up to and connect with another badass mom like yourself:
