A proposito di questo titolo

What if the hardest part of advocating for your child isn’t the system, but unlearning the way you’ve been taught to think about it?

What if you keep doing the same things because they feel safe, even when they stopped working a long time ago?

What if the mindset that got you through the early years is now the very thing holding you back?

In this episode of Finding Common Ground, Heather and Steve sit down with Lynda Allen, career educator, advocate, and TEDx speaker, for a conversation that rewrites what most of us were taught about special education, labels, and empowerment. Lynda honors how exhausting and heartbreaking the day to day can be, while insisting on this truth, there is nothing broken about your child, and nothing defective about you as a parent.

From that starting point, she invites parents to stop waiting for the system to get fixed and start seeing themselves as decision making partners in every service, support, and opportunity their child receives.

“Being empowered means becoming a decision making partner in your child’s education and life, not doing it alone, and not giving your power away.” — Lynda Allen This isn’t about fighting harder. It is about thinking differently so you can build the education and the life your child deserves.

We talk about:

How labels can cloud the way we see our kids, and how to take that power back

Why dream first matters, especially when it feels impossible

Lynda’s four step framework for moving from survival to leadership as an empowered parent

Building a village so you are not doing this alone, and how empowered parents change systems from the ground up

If you’re tired of proving your child’s worth and ready to try a different way forward, this episode is for you. Come tired, leave empowered, and before the episode ends, write down your child’s dream role and one bold step you will take as their partner this week.
