100 Episodes: Reflections & Revelations on the Meliorists’ FASD Journeys

In this celebratory 100th episode of Living with FASD, host Patti Kasper is joined by her closest friends and fellow FASD advocates: Jodee Kulp, Deb Evenson, and Antonia Rathbun Lindsay. Together, they reflect on how their journeys with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) have transformed their lives for the better. The conversation dives deep into personal experiences, sharing how understanding FASD has shaped their perspectives and enhanced their compassion for those affected by neurodiversity.

The guests discuss the importance of observation over interpretation, emphasizing how curiosity and empathy can foster better relationships and support systems for individuals with FASD. With humor and heartfelt anecdotes, they explore the lessons learned along the way, including the value of humility and the necessity of collaboration in advocacy efforts.
This episode serves as a poignant reminder of the power of community in navigating the complexities of FASD. The group also teases an upcoming topic focused on the next generation and the importance of creating a brighter future for children affected by prenatal alcohol exposure.

Join Patti and her friends as they celebrate this milestone and encourage listeners to continue advocating for awareness, understanding, and support within their communities. This episode is a must-listen for anyone invested in the FASD community and seeking inspiration from shared experiences.
