Hey, What’s Up! It’s Tommy. This episode is all about reflection. I’m looking back over the past year—where I was, where I am now, and how far we've come as a family. When I started this podcast, I didn’t know where it would go or if it would go anywhere. Now, we’re nearly one year in, and the growth—not just in Wyatt, but in all of us—is something I’m incredibly thankful for.
Last summer was hard. There were meltdowns, isolation, and moments that tested every ounce of patience and hope. This summer? Wyatt is laughing, playing in the pool with cousins, and jumping in with both feet—literally and figuratively. And while life still has its ups and downs (sometimes day to day), the breakthroughs are real. You can feel the shift.
I talk about what’s changed, what we’ve learned, and why it’s so important to document your journey. Whether through a podcast, a journal, or just some quick notes, you’ll be surprised by the progress you might miss otherwise. There’s no magic fix—but there is hope, there is faith, and there’s power in not giving up.
