76. When Storms Intersect, Propel Yourself Through the Trauma


Listen Later

Welcome to Episode 76 of the Warrior Words podcast!

 

It's the first day of Autism Acceptance Month!

Autism is one of my storms, but it's also one of my blessings. This week, I talk about what happens when our traumas and storms intersect at a point in time as mine did recently.

One of my storms left a permanent change in my reality and how I live my life. The other seems to keep sending surprises to remind me it was once a major part of my life. And then both of those impact how autism fits into my life.

Just because a storm seems like it is in the past, doesn't mean it stays there. There are reminders. There are surprises. There may be decisions that need to be made.

These intersections should cause us to think. But not just think. After that, we must act...

 

Armor Up.

Fight the Good Fight.

Seek Beauty.

Make Your Words Warrior Words.
