Hello wonderful readers!
Welcome to the heart and soul of my blog, where inspiration, family, and the twists of life come together in a warm embrace. We all have our reasons for putting pen to paper (or fingers to keyboard), whether it’s self-expression, sharing feelings, inspiring others, documenting achievements, or finding therapy in words.
For me, the driving force behind my writing is my incredible family and our unique journey with autism. It’s a journey that transitions from seemingly impossible moments to ones that feel entirely possible. From the chaos of everyday life to the delicate dance of finding balance. It’s about navigating unexpected situations and, most importantly, discovering myself – not just as a mom but as an individual.
My blogs are a blend of everything life has tossed onto my doorstep, and I invite you to join me in reading through these stories. I hope you’ll find something that resonates with your own experiences. I’ll be sharing our adventures with ABA and opening up about the importance of self-education and understanding ABCs data – a game-changer that helped me comprehend the behaviours of my nonverbal children.
As I grew in understanding my children, unexpected doors opened for me, leading to my entrepreneurial venture.
I’ll be letting you in on my personal journey of developing an app inspired by my children – the very same ones who constantly surprise, challenge, and inspire me. It’s amusing how I never realized the empowerment that comes with sharing a piece of my story. Who would have thought I’d contribute to a book called “With Grace and Grit,” an inspirational guidepost for women in business? Certainly not me. But if you dive into my story within those pages, you’ll see why it’s a true testament to the unexpected twists of life.
Our path with autism has been nothing short of intriguing, filled with highs and lows that often leave you questioning if you’ll ever stand tall again. Yet, time and again, I find that inner strength, dust myself off, and keep pushing forward. So, hang on tight! While my stories might dip into the lows at times, I promise you a positive note to wrap it up – because that’s the essence of my journey: finding the light at the end of the tunnel and trusting that we are right where we are supposed to be.
Life with autism has taught me resilience, patience, and the beauty of celebrating small victories. It’s a journey that challenges me to grow and evolve, not just as a parent but as a human being. Through the ups and downs, I’ve discovered a profound sense of purpose and the importance of embracing the unexpected.
I hope this blog becomes a source of inspiration for you, a virtual space where we can connect over shared experiences and find strength in our unique journeys. Together, let’s navigate the twists of life, celebrate the victories, and always remember that there’s light even in the darkest moments.
Thank you for joining me on this incredible journey. Here’s to finding joy, inspiration, and connection in the pages of our lives.
