The Dangers of Being Reactive

In this episode of "The Art of Living Proactively," host Tony Winyard sits down with Jodi Klaristenfeld, founder of FLRRiSH, an organization offering support and resources for parents of premature babies and NICU graduates. Jodi shares her personal experience of having her daughter born 12 weeks early and the lack of community and information she encountered during that challenging time. She emphasizes the importance of being proactive and advocating for necessary therapies and tailored education to help these children thrive. Jodi also discusses the importance of mental health support for parents and the need to destigmatize asking for help. With a focus on spreading awareness and partnering with other organizations, Jodi aims to provide a lifeline for preemie parents and remind them that they are not alone on this journey.
