TRAILER

Embracing Holland Trailer

Hi, I'm Angie Auldridge, and I'm Megan Barrett, Welcome to Embracing Holland. When Meg and I received each of our children's diagnoses, we found ourselves in the land of worry, grief, and unknown, but after a while, when we realized that this excursion was not temporary we settled in and began to see life in a new way. As a special needs rite of passage we were each handed the Welcome to Holland poem with the intent of showing us that this place is not so bad and in fact can be really beautiful. Some days are dumpster fires and other days are filled with unexpected joy. Regardless of the cause of your detour, the struggle to embrace this new life is universal. Our hope is to share with you how ordinary people on this journey have unpacked their bags and faced adversity with creativity, passion, and determination. We'll bring you interviews, field trips, cool stuff we find along the way and glimpses into the reality of raising children with differing needs. Join us as we embrace Holland!

I absolutely love this podcast! The hosts are so relatable. My favorite part of the podcast is the host chat in the beginning. The ladies are real, humorous, and vulnerable. Whether you’re a parent of a special needs child, an advocate, an educator or just enjoy learning, I highly recommend this podcast!

Discusses topic in a “take it or leave it” fashion. No judgement or “you should do this, or you should do that...” here the way other special needs podcasts or books do.
Embracing Holland is a must for all who love a person with special needs!

Proud to share with all my family and friends: Embracing Holland podcast is AMAZING. Do you have family members or friends who are parents of children with special needs? Have a listen and then share with them. You may be able to relate or you may find a nugget of wisdom to help that friend or family member. These two young moms have experience themselves and let you know you are NOT alone on this journey. They have resources and tricks up their sleeves that I never heard of before, and my son is 26 years old! Listen, share, listen, share. (Those, plus love, make the world go round.) 💕
Great podcast

Interviews are personal and real. Life hacks and living with the Coronavirus is insightful for families that are living with a child with autism and the special challenges. That brings. While listening I found myself picking up on little hacks that I had never thought . Keep it up
