FASD Family Life

FASD Family Life podcast is where we get REAL about raising children and youth with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder. I am Robbie Seale, the host and producer of the FASD Family Life Podcast. I'm so glad that you found this podcast.I am not a social worker or a psychologist. I am a mom who snuck into conferences, scoured the internet, read books, attended for webinars and workshops because I was desperate to learn everything I could about Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder and trauma. Why? Because my family was in crisis! What I learned changed EVERYTHING! I want to share what I learned with you, parent to parent. I know the struggle is real, and so is success! To hear my story listen to season 1, episode 10.The FASD Family Life podcast will encourage, educate, and equip you to become a confident caregiver of your loved one with FASD and trauma. You will discover the source of challenging behaviours, how to care for yourself amid the stress, and learn practical strategies to improve life for you and your loved one with FASD. If you have a comment or a question email me at FASDFamilyLife@gmail.com. I'd love to hear from you!
