1KHO 942: You Are Already Worthy | Tabitha Paige, I Loved You From the Start

Here is a message worth here hearing over and over again: you were already worthy before you accomplished a single thing. Artist, author, speech therapist, and homeschooling mom Tabitha Paige returns to the 1000 Hours Outside Podcast for a conversation that goes much deeper than her children's books. Tabitha shares how her son Declan, who was born with a rare genetic syndrome and significant disabilities, changed the way she understands love, worth, and what makes a life valuable. Those messages are woven into her deeply personal new book, I’ve Loved You From the Start. Tabitha also tells the remarkable story of illustrating the book after a traumatic brain injury left her struggling to see, forcing her to wrestle with the very question she was writing about: Would I still have worth if I could never create again? Ginny and Tabitha talk about raising children in an achievement-obsessed culture, homeschooling without fear, choosing a different path for your family, keeping creativity alive into adulthood, and Tabitha's beautiful new Winnie-the-Pooh projects. This one is a reminder for parents and children alike: love isn't something we earn, and there isn't just one right way to build a meaningful life.
