What family peer support means to me is being the person that I wish that I would have had when I was walking a very lonely and isolating road.
Imagine being a parent trying to navigate the labyrinth of healthcare systems for your child with special needs. In this episode of 'Recovery Talks', Jim sits down with Beth and Kayla, two mothers who have lived through these exact challenges. They open up about their personal journeys, sharing raw and honest experiences that many families will find all too familiar.
From the frustrations of long wait times and insurance roadblocks to moments of sheer hopelessness, Beth and Kayla lay it all out on the table.
