“If you don't see yourself, you internalize a quiet message that your experience doesn’t matter.”Dalisse Sequeiros joins me to talk about her book series, Loving Pieces Books, which serves as a mirror for autistic kids and a window for everyone else. We get real about the "hidden disability" of low-support needs, the exhaustion of masking, and how to use stories as tools for connection rather than just "lessons" on how to be "normal".Key Takeaways:• Why "typical" doesn't mean "normal."• How to prepare children for social events without "romanticizing" the experience.• The importance of parents trusting their intuition over clinical dismissal.Connect with Dalisse:• Website: lovingpiecesbooks.com• Instagram: @lovingpiecesbooks• LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sequeirosdalisse/
