In last week’s episode, I shared briefly the beautiful message from Autism Mom Mentor and Author, Heidi Rome’s non-verbal son gave her when he was just 11 years old so it is such an honor to have Heidi share her full story with me this week!! This simple but profound message that Heidi’s son, Ethan shares about love and how part of that is also connected to choice is so incredible that I hope it touches your heart and soul in the most amazing way like it did mine!! Heidi has made it her mission to become the messenger for Ethan’s message because it is one that is truly meant for all humanity to hear. What also made this episode so special is the level of divine myronies that unfolds in our conversation and how unbelievably interconnected they seem to be…I hope it helps you to recognize your own myronies and maybe even inspire you to start sharing on your social media to get the conversation going with #thatsmyrony :)  

About the Guest:

Heidi Rome is an Autism Mom Mentor and the Founder of Moms Spectrum Oasis LLC. In May 2020, she launched her book, You Just Have to Love Me: Mothering Instructions from My Autistic Child, which hit #1 New Release bestseller status in the Parenting Children with Disabilities, Disability Parenting, and Special Needs categories on Amazon during the pre-order period, with requests coming in from around the world. Heidi has been featured in the Huffington Post, iHeart Radio and other media.  

Whether speaking, consulting privately, teaching courses, leading groups, holding retreats, facilitating circles, or leading staff/employee autism motivational training, Heidi's key message of "Take a Breath and Breathe" is for struggling moms who are so focused on being a "good parent" and doing their best for their special child that they neglect their own self-care--a decision with severe consequences for each member of the family. Heidi shows overwhelmed parents how to choose a happier, more empowering path toward the family's well-being. 

Life and its detours from the script we had laid out for ourselves happen to us all. Who hasn't said "I didn't bargain for this!"? Yet, profoundly affected by her nonverbal son's typed messages of encouragement and spiritual guidance, Heidi now soothes and coaches worried moms with her practical experience and transformational thinking that bring calm to the hardest times. Heidi has just launched her new program "25 Minutes for Me", to support all moms with life’s seasons of change through fun, fellowship and learning together.
