Shannon Urquiola, Not Your Average Autism Mom
I am mom to two amazing young adults. My son Jordan is 25 and was diagnosed with autismwhen he was 5-years old. He also has a younger sister Madison who is 23. My journey totoday really began on the day I got Jordan’s diagnosis.I remember that day like it was yesterday. Being so confused, not being able to stop the tears,asking WHY ME? Those feelings of being alone when no one in my family had a child withautism, all my friends who had their children before me, none of them had a child with autism?When you have a child with autism you find yourself feeling isolated and alone.I spent 10 years building an Educational Advocacy company and working with special needsfamilies and advocates across the US when Jordan was in middle and high school. Duringthose years, the realization that Jordan would be living with me forever became noticeably clear.That was my reality, so I knew I had to figure out how I was going to embark on that journeyshowing up every day as the best version of myself. It was at that time I began working with aLife Coach, and through that coaching and training, I began to really understand how I neededto think differently to feel differently and it was truly a turning point in my life.I went on to become a certified Life Coach and today, inside of our private membership, not onlydo we have an array of autism training and resources that they need along this unique parentingjourney, but we include an entire coaching program as well. I am coaching our moms onbecoming more confident and courageous throughout their parenting journey.I am extremely passionate about the world of autism and more specifically the challenges thatmoms raising a child with autism have along the way.

Interview with David Boyer, Resort Manager at Bluegreen Vacations
My name is David Boyer. I have worked in the hospitality industry for over 25 years. I have always been obsessed with providing great customer service and creating incredible vacation memories. Once Brady came into our lives, we looked at things differently. A lot of the things we did as a family was taken for granted. Just going to the store, yet alone on vacation was more of a challenge. It was more difficult to do things as a family. Once we moved to Myrtle Beach we heard about the many activities that were offered for kids with Autism. Brady had a chance to go see things and do activities that he had never done before. I also learned about the training the Champion Autism Network, also known as CAN, does for resorts and hotels to offer the chance for other families to visit Myrtle Beach. This was the same time I was trying to educate my own company on how we can better serve families and children in the autism community. I believe it is so important for the family bonding and togetherness. CAN provides that opportunity by working with businesses and resorts. There is so much that can be done in our area and we have the opportunity to assist other communities to help them learn and develop their own programs with businesses. CAN can truly make a big difference in so many lives.
