Hey, What’s Up! It’s Tommy. In this episode of Spectrum in Camouflage, I’m sharing a personal update about Wyatt’s progress, including a huge milestone—four out of five nights of solid sleep! If you’re a parent of a child with special needs, you know how rare and beautiful that is. Sleep isn’t just a win for our kids—it can change the entire tone of our day.
I also break down the link between hydration and stress, especially for parents and caretakers who are constantly on the go. Whether you're running on fumes or just trying to feel a little more like yourself, staying hydrated—and getting the right kind of salt—might be the missing piece. I talk about my experience with blood pressure spikes, stress crashes, and how small changes like adding Celtic salt and electrolytes have helped me feel stronger mentally and physically.
You’ll hear how stress affects hydration, and how dehydration can hit back even harder, making anxiety, brain fog, and physical fatigue worse. If you're a parent doing it all (especially one raising a neurodivergent child), you're training for a marathon. So let's start treating our bodies like they matter, too.
Start with hydration. You might feel like a million bucks.
