  • S5: Episode 14: Laura Bache, Founder, Oli's Cookies

    Thank you Laura for sharing your story with us!

    https://oliscookiescompany.com/

    My story started a little over four years ago when I got the news that my son had low functioning Autism Spectrum Disorder.

    That day, I cried and grieved over all of the plans and ideas that I had imagined for his future.

    I dove deep into trying to understand the world of Autism and how I would best raise Oliver.

    Soon after his diagnosis, I left my job as a chef and began my journey as a full time caregiver to him.

    Over these last few years we have made so many new friends that have loved, guided and supported us along our journey. I am incredibly grateful that my eyes have been opened to a community of so many special people with similar disabilities. I believe Oliver is thriving!

    He is a very sweet and loving boy. I was told years ago to teach him to read and expose him to as much as possible. So that's what I do. We do things like soccer, swimming, baseball, surfing, cooking, traveling, art, community gatherings and much more.

    As busy as I am with Oli, I have never stopped baking. It is my outlet for stress and anxiety and it's a way that I can express and share my love with people.

    I have been baking and sharing these amazing Plant Based Chocolate Chip cookies for over 3 years. I have finally decided to start packaging and selling them. It is my goal to continue to expose Oliver to many new adventures and help him thrive in life while spreading Autism awareness and acceptance one delicious cookie at a time.

  • S5: Episode 12: Denise Skinner, RN, IBCLC, ABMNMP; Awakened Body Mind

    Denise has been on the Autism journey with her son, Nathan for 20 years, diagnosed with autism at 2, he is now 22. She has gone down alot of "rabbit holes" in the 20 years without a lot of significant change looking to help her son. Since finding the Anat Baniel Method NeuroMovement method as well as her own personal embodiment and healing journey, they are both thriving.

    The missing piece that she believes is the Brain-Body disconnect and lack of embodiment that her son was struggling with. Also since starting to really ALLOW and let him be who he is, healing herself and beliefs around who he was and the diagnosis, he then started integrating more into this world, feeling his body, regulation of his nervous system, awareness of his emotions, environments etc.

    Denise helps families deeply connect with themselves and their children on the spectrum. She does in person NeuroMovement lessons as well as coaching for parents online using the Anat Baniel principles. You can find out more on her website at www.awakenedbodymind.com. Contact her for a free 20 min discovery call.
