The Adapted Life, Finding Next

About

<p><b>I’m Julie Hasselberger. For 26 years, I was the full-time caregiver for my beloved son Daniel, whose life was marked by profound disability and extraordinary beauty. This podcast began as a way to support other parents navigating the complex, often isolating world of special needs caregiving. But life changed — heartbreakingly and irrevocably — when my son passed away.</b></p><p><br></p><p><b>Now, </b><b><em>The Adapted Life, Finding Next </em></b><b> is a space for truth-telling, tenderness, and transformation. It’s about what comes after the role that once defined you is gone. It’s about grief, relational trauma, resilience, and the raw, ongoing search for </b><b><em>next</em></b><b> — for purpose, healing, and connection.</b></p><p><br></p><p><b>If you’re facing a season of reckoning, rebuilding, or rediscovery, I invite you to walk with me. You are not alone. This is the adapted life… and together, we’ll find what comes next.</b></p><p><br></p>
