Arms Around Us is a weekly podcast on parenting and caregiving children of all ages with PANS/PANDAS, Autism and other special needs.

In the Arms Around Us podcast, Susan and Dessa open a soft, honest space for the conversations that usually happen behind closed doors. These conversations are about the nervous system, about rupture and regulation, about the heartbreak and trust that weave themselves through daily caregiving.
