aVERY BRIGHT LIFEAuthor: Lisa Thornbury
aVERY BRIGHT LIFE isn't your typical parenting podcast. Mom, Lisa, shares honestly and humourously what she's learning about raising a child with disabilities. What makes this show unique is Avery herself, who is beautifully atypical. She joins in with her perspective on life, school, friendships and her cat, Kevin. Avery says her differences can be challenging, but mostly, her life's so bright she's gotta wear shades.

118. The Thing That Happened At The Mall And How We Handled It
Thursday, 24 July, 2025
When Independence Gets Real (and a Little Scary)... In this story time episode, Lisa shares a milestone moment in her daughter Avery’s journey toward independence: a trip to the mall with friends—no parents, no hovering, no safety net. What started as a proud (and slightly nerve-wracking) step into teenage freedom turned into a rollercoaster of emotions involving a shopping mishap, a heart-to-heart, and a terrifying twist that hit too close to home. Tune in for laughs, life lessons, and a reminder that letting go, even just a little, is one of the bravest things we can do as parents.***This podcast was recorded in Garage Band and edited by Lisa Thornbury (with assistance from Avery).Read more and find the transcript for this episode at averybrightlife.com.And, come chat with us on social!
