| 0:18.5 | Here's your host, child therapist, Natasha Daniels. Well, hello there, |
| 0:23.7 | and welcome to another episode of the AT Parenting Survival Podcast. Today, I want to talk to you about |
| 0:29.2 | something that happens to most of us if you have been raising a child with OCD for any length of time. |
| 0:35.9 | And that is when OCD shifts and it morphs and it changes. |

| 0:43.4 | It looks different. |

| 1:40.3 | I wanted to create a storybook that was more visual and simplistic for those kids that are three to six years old. |
| 1:48.1 | We miss them all the time. |
