Scratch That: Parenting & ReParenting Off Script

We need to constantly hear how folks with disabilities are valuable to counteract all the ableism we internalize. People with disability bring wonderful things to the world and are not a burden. Thank you!

I am a longtime fan of Caitlin’s work because it often shows things I’ve felt but never said out loud. I just finished gently weeping through this episode — discussion with Emma on infertility and miscarriage. It revealed a lot to me and also reflected a lot of me. I’ve carried shame around my own miscarriage and only bring it out of hiding to help someone else feel less bad. 10 years later, we still aren’t talking about this enough. I really encourage every human to listen, particularly if you’ve experienced this, if you know someone experiencing this, or want to be a safe place for someone who experiences this one day. We can all do better and this podcast is one way to get closer to that place.

I am always delighted to see a new episode from Caitlin & Rebecca. It’s like having two good friends in the car (or room) with you talking through parenting with no judgement or assumptions.

It is genuine magic Caitlin and Rebekah are creating together. The feeling is palpable. The respect, consideration, and admiration they have for one another creates a warm blanket that swaddles the listener. It’s an important and enlightening experience, and they made me feel like I was right there in the room with them. I am so very much looking forward to all of the future conversations they will give us the gift of listening in on.
