In this episode, we reverse the roles and sit down with podcast host Jordan and her mom, Mary, as a guest host. Jordan shares her journey living with epilepsy, from moving out at 17 to earning a master’s degree at 23. Reflecting on their early experiences, they discuss the uncertainties they faced when symptoms first appeared and the moments of clarity that emerged along the way.
They explore what they felt they got “right” during Jordan’s childhood and the resources they wish had been available. Drawing from their experiences with YAWE, they talk about the invaluable support the organization provides and the upcoming projects such as parental support groups and expanded resources.
