In today's episode I'm speaking with Casie Fariello of the parenting support platform, Other Parents Like Me.

All three of Casie's teens struggled with their mental health but it was her middle child that required a residential treatment center and a therapeutic boarding school. Her experience navigating these issues led her to launch her company to help support other parents like her.

Anytime you can hear another parent give an honest account of the challenges they faced with their teens, it helps you feel less alone. And when their story turns out as well as Casie's does, it also gives you hope for the future.

Today's Substack post takes the topic even further as I discuss 8 lessons I learned while negotiating our insurance company's payment of benefits for my son's stay at a residential treatment center...if you'd like to check it out.
