Failing at Life Right Now with Donna Sandoval

Send us a text (Note: we are not able to respond but LOVE to hear from you!!)

016 Hey all you listeners! This week I am talking with Donna Sandoval. We ended up having a lot in common with the struggles we face surrounding our special needs child. Donna shares about the transformations she’s gone through from becoming a special needs mom to her weight loss journey and finally coming to the place to be a light for others (and herself!)

Donna talks about how easy it is for anyone to focus on the highlight reels of other parents on social media. It’s an easy trap to fall into and she wanted to change that. She started sharing as a form of therapy and says if she can help even one person, it’s worth it. 

Donna shares her weight loss journey.  She says she needed to change NOW, and mentions the importance of self-love and accountability. It was more for her than her weight, her mentality was in such a bad place it was affecting every part of her life. She now knows the value of harnessing those negative thoughts in productive ones.
