Life is a blend of joy and pain, and this episode is a testament to our belief that these contrasting emotions can coexist. From Tina's recent trip to Hawaii, to breaking the cycle of past pain, we emphasize the importance of simultaneously experiencing life's highs and lows. We discuss how to heal, manage mental health, and break negative cycles. Ann talks about the heartache of raising children with disabilities and shares her son's struggle with DiGeorge Syndrome while Tina shares how she has learned to get through difficult times and gives Ann some great advice. They share insights on encouraging our children to adopt a positive outlook, helping them to look at life differently. So, tune in for a heartening discussion on parenting, adulting, and the power of positivity. Our experiences might not mirror yours, but we hope to provide strategies and insights that might help you navigate your own journey.

Thank you all for listening and your support.

The book, Wonder, by R. J. Palacio is mentioned.
Movie was directed by Stephen Chbosky, 2017.

The mission of Talk Law Radio is to help you discover your legal issue blind spots by listening to me talk about the law on the radio. The state bar of Texas is the state agency that governs attorney law licenses. The State Bar wants attorneys to inform the public about the law but does not want us to attempt to solve your individual legal problems upon the basis of general information. Instead, contact an attorney like Todd A. Marquardt at Marquardt Law Firm, P.C. to discuss your specific facts and circumstances of your unique situation.
