Welcome to the CRaP (n'Stuff) Club!
Here you'll find a place to ask questions, get researched-back and (loads of) experience-based responses. Access LIVE Q&A calls, webinars, and generic protocols to help your kids. Connect with other parents from around the world walking a similar journey and learn their best practices too. Also have opportunities to provide input to make this not only the best holistic constipation relief platform for kids, but also your go-to forum for pediatric health and wellness information and family friendly recipes!
Your Poop Whisperer, Clinicial Holistic Nutritionist, and High Performance Coach
First of all, I'm a mom - and there is little I haven't experienced as a mom raising two daughters - one with complex health issues who spent her first 16 months of life in hospital (i.e., various surgeries, treatments, blood draws, equipment etc), developed autism for which we did a biomedical program and a 5-year in-home autism program, and then attended alternative programming in public and high schools. I spent hours researching late at night, left a management career with the Canadian public service to reinvent myself into a nutritionist and coach in order to devote myself to helping families help their children faster than I was able to help mine.

Unfortunately I can't change this title at the moment. So this section is less likely to be used for actual challenges but for "Start Here" guidance and pinned material that is worth your attention.

CLUB GUIDELINES
The success of any club is how well the clubhouse rules are followed ...
1. BE KIND! We all have plenty of stress and are not in this group for more stress. We are here to support and cheer on one another. Admins reserve the right to delete comments / posts that become belligerent. Remember we all have our reasons for choosing therapies, treatments, and lifestyles. If you have a conflict with someone in the group, please discuss it privately. If you can not discuss it with that person, please inform Lisa Anderson in a private conversation.
2. DO NOT SHARE INFORMATION SHARED WITH YOU IN THIS CLUB - All information, content and methodologies presented by Lisa Anderson are under copyright and must not be duplicated, or shared. If you think someone you know may benefit from what we are discussing, then please invite them to join. The more the merrier!
3. LABEL IT - To help scroll and search, please label your post e.g.. HELP NEEDED, THERAPY RECOMMENDATIONS, AUTISM, EATING ISSUES, TOILETING ISSUES, WANT TO CONNECT etc. You may promote your program, product, or service that is beneficial for this community once. Please label it "PROMOTION: [eg. THERAPY]"
4. VENTING & TRIGGER WARNINGS - When frustrated, upset, angry, exhausted and need to vent, please label your post "VENTING" or "TRIGGER WARNING" and be open to suggestions / guidance. Ideally we are here to help each other work through it and move forward. xoxo
5. RESPECT EVERYONE'S PRIVACY - Being part of this Club requires mutual trust. Authentic, expressive discussions make groups great, but may also be sensitive and private. What's shared in this Club stays in this Club!
6. CONNECT WITH EACH OTHER - Parenting children with constipation, gut issues, and/or special needs can be isolating and lonely. Some here are single parents. Connect with each other - online, by phone, in person - especially if living nearby. Nobody here is a stranger! xo
7. ERR ON THE SIDE OF CAUTION - This Club has been established for the purposes of sharing information & making connections with other parents on similar journeys. It is your responsibility to check something with your own medical/legal professional. We do not endorse or take responsibility for any given advice.
8. NO HATE SPEECH OR BULLYING - This should go without saying, but just in case I want to be clear: Make sure everyone feels safe. Bullying of any kind isn't allowed, and degrading comments about things like race, religion, culture, sexual orientation, gender or identity will not be tolerated. If you engage in this type of behaviour you'll have one opportunity to apologize and correct your behaviour. The second time you'll be blocked from the Club and your membership cancelled without a refund for the current month.
9. SPAM - Give more than you take from this Club. Spam and irrelevant links aren't allowed. Self-promotion or promoting others is allowed ONCE if properly labelled and relevant to this Club eg. "PROMOTION: [SPECIFIC AREA]" (which will be set up soon if not already).
10. DO NOT VIOLATE THE CLUB'S PRIVACY - Discussions, pictures, and posts from this Club stay in this Club. Screenshotting or “sharing” such things outside of the Club is not allowed. Part of this space being safe is the fact that it’s private. Sharing screenshots outside of this Club will result in an immediate ban. Similarly, DO NOT SHARE LINKS DIRECTLY FROM THE CLUB; this compromises the privacy of the Club. If you have any questions about sharing a link, please contact Admin.
11. HAVE FUN - Be open and curious! The more we can connect when we are struggling or when we are winning the more we help each other. And the more we can laugh together the easier our days are!
