Grandparents Raising Grandchildren: Nurturing Through Adversity

Welcome to "Grandparents Raising Grandchildren: Nurturing Through Adversity." I’m your host, Laura Brazan, a parent and grandparent raising two grandchildren. In this podcast, we dive deep into the lives of grandparents who find themselves parenting once again, facing challenges such as dwindling retirement savings, loneliness, and handling the trauma that their grandchildren may carry. We'll hear heartfelt stories from grandparents like Betty Wilkes and Kathy Sjostrom who share their experiences of crisis and resilience.  Coaches, John and Sylvie Weaver, speak about the importance of focusing on what we can do in the present moment. Expert Brian McLaren discusses the difficult art of "letting go," to make room for unexpected joys and the new legacies being crafted through the struggles of kinship care. Gain insights from experts on everything from financial advice, to parenting techniques and therapists knowledgeable in working with children who have experienced trauma. This community is here to honor your journey, explore solutions, and celebrate the strength it takes to raise grandchildren. Whether you’re seeking connection, advice, or just a chance to be heard, this podcast was made just for you!
