Turning Shame Into Care: A Guide To Trauma, Incontinence, and Advocacy with Peter Mutabazi and Mica Phillips
Streams straight from the publisher. PodNod never proxies or re-hosts episode audio.
We open the door on incontinence in foster and adoptive homes and talk plainly about shame, trauma, and the mental load. Peter Mutabazi, founder of Now I am Known, shares the daily realities of children with incontinence issues and advocacy wins. Mica Phillips, Vice President of Aeuroflow Urology, explains how to qualify for medical-grade supplies through Medicaid and why it restores dignity.
• why stigma follows older kids who need diapers
• trauma, autism, ADHD, and constipation as drivers
• the true cost burden and poor retail fit for bigger sizes
• using physicians as allies and documentation that works
• navigating Medicaid, managed care, and approvals
• school and camp accommodations, IEP hurdles, and dignity
• refill timing, product quantities, and fewer last‑minute store runs
• practical steps to apply via Aeroflow Urology and what to expect
