Ep. 144 Parenting a Special Needs Child While in Recovery with Ashley Montano

In this week’s episode I am joined by my good friend Ashley Montano. Ashley has two special needs children and as you know, we’ve been on a journey of getting Dakota a diagnosis and professional support. We talk our experiences raising special needs children while sober, our opinions on ABA, navigating daily schedules, the pressure co-parenting can add, the support systems we utilize, financial stress of proper medical care, the importance of community, and the lessons our kids have taught us.   Our lovely sponsors this week are:   Get 35% off with code REALITY when you shop Cozy Earth’s high-quality goods, sustainably sourced luxury bedding, and loungewear!    Upstart is the fast and easy way to pay off your debt with a personal loan–all online.
