The Steptember Challenge was our inspiration to capture some of this wisdom and share it with new mums or mums who haven’t yet found their support networks or just want a chuckle. Lisa and Eva are two mums who’ve figured some of the hard stuff out. They agreed (after some wine) to record their conversation about living life well with cerebral palsy on our walk to rack up Steptember miles for Team Wheelie Walkers. Things that we cover o What do you know now that you wish you’d known in the early days of being a mum o Working with therapists o Managing mum guilt o Finding balance o Funny things that friends and family do (that they shouldn’t) o Tips for school o The best way to approach mums of kids with disabilities o Top Tips for new mums Have a listen to “Conversations with mums who wheelie walk the talk”
