I'm really glad I've joined this community! Tanya, you have created a lot of fantastic content: informative, well-structured and presented with compassion. It is very soothing to see so much good information that I can relate to, even though you don’t know our situation. I get exactly what I need from you. Some of the things you talk about confirm my own thoughts, and thus I feel much safer in my choices, and when I need to confront others who don’t understand this. But you also point out things that I see I should work with, and I’m really grateful for it. So I get both validation, comfort and guidance from you, and it’s truly invaluable
