She got a couple of goats because her son could only drink goat’s milk. Her son was able to overcome a sensory issue and he actually took his mittens off and touched the goats!! Since then, he has been able to raise and show goats which has given him a sense of community, self-confidence, and a type of therapy in a sense. Karen contacted me to answer questions in a Q&A style article for the American Nigerian Dwarf Dairy Goat Association’s Newsletter. I answered all of her questions and sent her back eight pages of information, stories, and explanation of stress, balance, and boundaries. Then, I got thinking this would be an excellent episode and hearing Karen’s story is both inspiring and motivational.     Connect with Sarah Zastrow Facebook https://www.facebook.com/groups/2295514594092240 Instagram https://www.instagram.com/throwingwrenchesmendingfences/ Website https://www.micultivatebalance.com/ Pinterest Page: https://www.pinterest.com/micultivatebalance/ YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMVcExxS1xgVghkfXQ7e Tiktok: https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMevsHpyW/   Connect with Karen Goodchild   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/okdoek Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/okdoek   Website American Nigerian Dwarf Dairy Goat Association https://www.andda.org/
