In the Season 2 premiere of Resilience and Hope: A Food Allergy Podcast, host Lesley-Anne Stone welcomes back fan-favorite guest Lesley Lasker, her therapist, for another deeply personal conversation.
This episode explores the importance of modeling behavior for children and defining what resilience truly means. They discuss issues including Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) in food allergy parents, the stigma in taking anti-anxiety medication, the emotional toll of managing life-threatening allergies, and how the chronic stress of food allergies can impact both parents and children.
They also reflect on listener questions and feedback from Season 1 and talk about the new season ahead.
