EP 184: How to Not Care what Other People Think

Parents of kids with baffling behaviors are CONSTANTLY being judged by others.

How do we get to a point where we don’t care as much about what other people think?

In this episode, we’ll explore:

• Some of the most common judgments that parents of kids with baffling behaviors receive
• How it’s actually not possible to not care at all, but we can care LESS
• Three things we can do so that the judgment from others doesn’t impact us as much as it does now
