Summary

No matter your situation, parenting is HARD. But it’s something we love and find incredibly fulfilling. On this episode of Raising Heights with Zach and Tori, we scratch the surface of our experiences and thoughts around parenting.

In the unique situation of being a mixed-height couple with kids who all have dwarfism, we’re learning along the way. Often left out of milestone conversations and celebrated with extra enthusiasm, we talk about the best things you can do for yourself and your kids to help them find their purpose, learn and grow — all while feeling loved along the way.


On this episode we dive into:

✅ Not letting your diagnosis define you (or your kids)
✅ The reality of raising kids with dwarfism
✅ The biggest disservice that’s the easiest to fall into
✅ The importance of helping your kids find their purpose
