These 2 Words Are Hurting You!
I can’t even begin to tell you how many coaching sessions I have had with my clients who tell me this .. and hint, I’ve already used it in this sentence…. These 2 words: I CAN’T. For instance, I’ve heard: A parent said I can’t handle having a child with Autism. A mother said I …
You’re one thought away from THIS
You have about 60,000 thoughts a day. I’ve worked with hundreds of parents with children on the spectrum and most of those thoughts are negative. For example, I’ve heard: ”My child won’t ever be potty trained so as the result, I’ll be cleaning up poop for the rest of my life” “I won’t hear my son …
Aggressive Behavior is No JOKE!
Coming off the heels of my last blog post on entitlement (if you didn’t catch it, read it HERE) I’m coming to you today talking about aggressive/problem behavior. Because aggressive behavior is no joke. It’s no joke seeing your kid hit their head against the floor. It’s no joke seeing your kid smash objects against …
Are You Entitled?

A Potty Shit Show to a Potty Guru!
From a Potty Shit Show to a Potty Guru! Back then when I was potty training my daughter, I was indeed OUT OF MY MIND. She was non-verbal on the Autism spectrum and in preschool at the time. One day I saw a kid in her preschool that was potty trained. That triggered me to say… I NEED …
I’m losing my daughter
Hello Warrior Parents! “I’m losing my daughter.” This was a thought I had repeatedly around Julianna’s 16-month mark. And if you’re anything like me, you’ve seen regression with your child. In other words, it was your child hitting milestones, saying words, maybe even pointing, and making great eye contact. However, all of a sudden it just stopped. It went …
Until my dying day.
“I bet she doesn’t even have a child with Autism.” “You should be ashamed of yourself for charging for services, you should do this for free if you really want to help children and parents as you claim.” “Yea sure pay me and I’ll help your child. You can’t help THIS.” “I’m unsubscribing. Shame on …
