  • “Who needs caffeine when I can have adrenaline-fueled adventures all day and all night?” That’s what I used to say when my son was little.  By 1 or 2 pm on most days, my hands started trembling from the constant stream of adrenaline. My mind was always on alert because my hyperactive son was an escape artist with a knack for getting himself into dangerous situations.  I had to think quickly on the run.

This does not mean life for special needs parents is miserable, but it isn’t  for the faint of heart.  Those who embrace this life successfully must be or become mentally tough, emotionally secure, and capable of finding purpose in pain or difficulty. “5 Ways to Beat Burnout” is about making a paradigm shift.  Living a life of discovery rather than focusing on difficulty.   Let’s begin!

So, having discovered how much it cheers and reinvigorates me when I get thank you notes from clients or others I've helped, I've started a campaign to spread the cheer. It takes just a few minutes of time, and can be done by email or snail mail.
