Two Little Lives, Two Unexpected Journeys: Parenting Through Rare Diagnosises

Season 1 · Episode 3

Thursday, August 27, 2026 • Duration 48:29

What happens when parenting takes an unexpected turn—not once, but twice?

In this episode, I sit down with a mom whose two young children are each navigating very different journeys. Her 5-year-old was recently diagnosed with Noonan syndrome, ADHD, and autism. Her 2-year-old was born with heterotaxy and other congenital heart defects and has already faced a complex medical journey.

We talk about the uncertainty that comes with unexpected diagnoses, advocating for your children, navigating medical and developmental challenges, and finding strength and hope along the way.

This is a real and honest conversation about parenting, resilience, and learning to embrace the unexpected.

I'm so glad you're here. ❤️

In this first episode of The Unexpected Parenting Podcast, I sit down with Tanya to talk about her journey raising a son with Down syndrome.

This conversation is filled with honesty, resilience, hope, and the lessons she's learned along the way. Whether you're a parent of a child with disabilities or simply looking for encouragement, I know you'll be inspired by Tonya's story.

You're not alone on this journey. 💛
