My friend Megan and I are doing a “thing” and we couldn’t be more excited. Over the last six years I have had the opportunity to come in contact with other moms and dads who are, or have been, living a complex and chaotic life with a special needs kiddo(s). Some of these men and women are the strongest and most extraordinary people I have ever met and they have enriched my life in ways I never thought possible.

Meg is one of those people. Like Ella, her son is medically complex. Ironically though, we met long before our superhero’s were born. Our shared struggles and frustrations brought us closer together. Megan has been a sounding board, a cheerleader, a book of knowledge, a shoulder to lean on, a source of laughter, and when needed, my dose of reality. The truth is, medical mamas are in a class of their own and we are an army of strong women living throughout the world.

For the longest time we have been talking about ways to give back. When I see a family struggling, or hear of a kiddo who needs help Meg is the first person I reach out to. The texts often start with, “How about we…”. She always agrees that my ideas are terrific but making them a reality is something that we could never really figure out, but not for lack of trying. About a month ago I text her and we got talking about nothing, and everything, as we do with most conversations. Only during this particular conversation we both agreed it was time to make things happen. Time to help ourselves and time to help other people.

So began our podcast journey. Talking to Megan, and other medical mamas, has been such a therapeutic part of my sanity. I have joined numerous social media groups and have truly loved sharing our journey in my blog. Truth be told, even those who are not living a life similar to mine, have lifted me up when I was down. They have offered to help, given advice, or just reached out to make sure we were okay. I can’t tell you how many people are out there praying for our little girl. Our community is strong and we are so blessed.

Meg and I want to build that community and be there to offer love, support, guidance, and a listening ear. Sharing is so powerful and life changing for any mom, not just a medical mama, and that’s exactly what we want to do. The best part is that we are two funny bitches. Humor and sarcasm are our love language and we enjoy hanging out and having a good time. Why not share that good time with other moms who might need a pick me up, or at the very least with someone who can relate to the life they are living?

I invite you all to join our instagram (I will link it below) and share this journey with us. We welcome all, no one is excluded. Our biggest fan right now happens to be a frisky little pup name Slinky, and I am totally cool with that. We plan on recording and releasing our first show sometime in July, hopefully with video, and will be providing fun little updates and posts until the big day. There will also be a Facebook page set up in the near future.

Guest speakers, pressing questions, fun stories, tons of laughter, stories galore, and the raw emotions that come with raising ANY child will all be discussed. No topic is off limits and we look forward to touching upon so many. Megan and I take this lifestyle very seriously, but also know that laughter and friends are critical to survival. We look forward to taking this journey together! Come join the comedic chaos family!
