17: Raising Neurodivergent kiddos, embracing the chaos with Tracey Jewel

What if your child didn’t need fixing and neither did you?

In this beautifully candid episode, Laetitia is joined by Tracey Jewel, AuDHD mum, carer, and founder of Inclusive Mamas Club. Together, they explore the daily chaos, grief, and magic that come with raising neurodivergent children and how flipping the script from “doing it right” to radical acceptance can change everything.

Tracey shares her lived experience navigating life with her son Frankie, and the moment she realised all the tools and resources in the world don’t matter if we’re not resourcing ourselves. She shares how embracing chaos doesn’t mean giving up; it means showing up. For our kids. For ourselves. For the micro-moments of joy in between.
