Have you ever noticed that there is quite a bit of negativity surrounding parenting? This is particularly the case for

those with children who have a diagnosis. Many parents will find themselves embracing the negatives just to get the

support their family needs.

Kirsty Russell, positive and inclusive parenting advocate, challenges us in this episode to flip the negative parenting

idea on its head and start using the power of positivity to become confident parents and improve the family

experience.

Working with Allied Health professionals, Kirsty has discovered that positive conversations surrounding a family’s

circumstance can impact the way they approach parenting. Using this experience, she provides an insight into how

we can use empathy to tackle difficult conversations and help parents be the best versions of themselves.
