Some days disability parenting feels like navigating an invisible minefield of triggers only you can see, hear, and feel — their lived reality and ours like existing on opposite planets, and the heaviness pummels us. This Window of Tolerance support kit isn't about sinking into grievance parenting; it's simply honest, and it comes from lived experience parenting our beautiful neurodivergent daughter Nai, who is high-support needs. You'll leave with a breakdown of the window of tolerance, how to identify the zone you're in, and questions to help you support yourself through it all — a check-in to name where you are right now, a space to name your triggers in your words, accessible practices that fit our reality, and gentle reminders for widening your window. Connection is regulation — you don't have to navigate the minefield alone.
