TW; mention of ABA

Join my guest Jacki Edry today as she shares about her book, “Moving Forward:Reflections on Autism, Neurodiversity, Brain Surgery and Faith”

We discuss how she began her first education/school experience working with autistic children, her insights and discoveries about the sensory system, how stimming is NOT a “behavior” that needs to be stopped or modified when it is a help to the person and so much more.

Join me LIVE with last week’s guest, Tammy Cho, for a deeper discussion around self discovery.  We had so many listeners love last week’s conversation and have been asking for more of Tammy.

Tune in on YouTube Monday, February 20th at 3pm Eastern Time US:

Help your friend who is just starting their autism journey and share the show with them too.  We all need a helping hand and a friend looking out for us.  Be that friend.

I look forward to hearing what you’ve learned each week. Share in the comments or on Instagram.

(note the unusual spelling of my name, my parents wanted me to be unique and didn't write it with an e at the end...little did they know how "unique" my brain would be one day!)

Jacki Edry recently published her first book "Moving Forward: Reflections on Autism, Neurodiversity, Brain Surgery and Faith"  and launched a blog on her website www.jackisbooks.com, which focuses on education, inclusion, neurodiversity, and more.

Jacki is a graduate of Hampshire College with an extensive background in education, writing, and marketing. She has been exploring the world of autism and neurodiversity for over thirty-five years, as a professional, parent of neurodivergent children, and firsthand as a survivor of complex brain surgery that affected my neurological and perceptual abilities.

She has spent many years advocating for inclusion programs in the educational system,  providing support for families of children with disabilities, and advocating for the inclusion of people with disabilities in society.
