084 | Home educating kids and supporting neurodivergent adults as they navigate work and family life with Peggy Cheyo | PT 2

PT 2: Peggy Cheyo is a parent, coach, facilitator, speaker, teacher and home educator. In the second mini episode, we talk about how her clients have changed but their core feelings of isolation have remained similar and what the assessment, diagnosis and advocacy processes have looked like for her family.

THINGS WE TALK ABOUT:

• Adapting to changing clients and their needs, from supporting pregnant and postpartum new parents to becoming specialized with families who are neurodivergent
• The desire to work with a flexible schedule to accommodate children with additional needs not being met in a traditional education setting
• How entrepreneurship skills can help with sourcing medical assessments, education and resources around raising a neurodivergent child when there is a lack of support and waitlists are lengthy
• Peggy's thoughts on creating more open and inclusive spaces for parents and their families, from the perspective of someone who home educates 

Thanks again to Peggy for speaking with me about the impact of isolation and seeking out your own answers when you aren't finding adequate information or supports.

Season 6 is sponsored by the Mixing Babies And Business Changemaker Program – for people who want to do things differently, create an impact and advocate for primary caregivers and their families along the way: mixingbabiesandbusiness.com/changemaker
