For many parents on the foster and adoption journey, handling their child's anxiety, meltdowns, or constant body movement, can feel a bit overwhelming. But there is hope, and more importantly, a solution!

We’re excited to welcome Marna Pacheco from CapeAble Weighted Products to The Honestly Adoption Podcast to discuss how weighted products (blankets, vests, wraps, etc) can help your children who have sensory needs. Through their patented Smart Weight Technology, CapeAble Weighted Products is changing the game in the weighted products field. And good news…the products she shares are NOT just for children. Adults can benefit too! (Just ask Kristin…😉).

A little more about Marna and CapeAble…

Marna grew up in the foothills of Mt. Rainier, running barefoot through the woods, making friends with nature. She is now happy to adopt Indiana as her home; It’s where her people are. She and her family live in red barn territory under the wide open skies. Marna is passionate about human connection and reminding everyone just how worthy and capable they truly are. She is a firm believer in embracing authenticity, sprinkling dance and laughter into each and every day, and finding astonishing beauty in small details. She christens the name “yummy” on everything good and perfect and beautiful and awesome and amazing and inspiring and heartfelt. She believes coffee makes the world go ‘round and that it is just the most amazing thing ever. She unfortunately had to break up with donuts, but she is known to whisper “I still love you” to random donuts from time to time. Marna is a fast and furious woman, doing all the things, all at once… passionately taking on the world before the world even knows it needs to be taken on.

Here’s how you can connect with Marna and CapeAble Weighted Products…
