What a roller coaster ride we had on our journey to Hunter’s autism diagnosis!  
In today’s episode, I’m sharing more about MY FEELINGS when we actually received his official diagnosis - it’s a day I’ll never forget.

How I felt might actually surprise you a bit & there are so many good takeaways in today’s episode if you’re in a season where you’re thinking about going through the evaluation process or perhaps you’re even in the thick of it already.

Make sure you’ve listened to episodes 4, 5 & 9 as well if you missed those :)

We’re also sharing our Autism Book Guide for the Entire Family with some really great (and easy to understand) reading material as you start this journey.  We wish we would have known about these years ago!

As the pandemic is finally winding down, our sweet babies aren’t having to wear masks as frequently!  BUT they are still required on airplanes for ages 2 and up, and unfortunately I don’t think that will be changing any time soon.

In this episode, we’re sharing our 5 simple ways to get your toddler to wear their mask while you travel through the airport, ride on the airplane and through the airport on the other end.

It’s a short & sweet episode.  The key is to start early, but I promise it’s not as hard as you think.  So even if you’re not heading out for a few months, tune into this episode and start implementing these tips now!

What do you do when even the professionals tell you ‘nothing is wrong?’

In today’s episode, I’m sharing more about my search for answers and help as we struggled with Hunter’s behaviors and my gut telling me something wasn’t quite right - even when everyone else was telling me not to worry!

I honestly don’t feel like I should have had to work so hard for someone to hear me.  But today, I’m sharing more of our journey with you in case you’re going through the same thing because Hunter is doing amazing now & I truly believe early intervention is key.

Make sure you’ve listened to episodes 4 & 5 as well if you missed those :)

What would you do at Disney World if you had an UNLIMITED budget?  I’m sure we could all get pretty creative, but today I’m sharing our top 8 splurges.  

You’ll probably be surprised to hear that not all of these are huge financial investments actually.  Some of them are more about the return on investment you get and if the value is really worth it for you and your family!

I’ll even be sharing what’s number 1 on our list and how many years away we are from actually making it happen (both age-wise & financially).

If one of the bigger investment splurges really resonates with you, start saving now to make your dream come to life :)

Validation.  We shouldn’t need it, but we do.  And I'm not even talking about professional validation.

I remember being the only one thinking something was amiss with Hunter.  And it made me feel even worse as a parent because no one else seemed to be worried.

I vividly remember the moment where I felt validated in my feelings & it was just the push I needed to stop hedging back and forth and keep going on my journey to answers for Hunter.  I’m sharing that story with you today & telling you that I am here to validate your feelings if no one else will!

We’re also sharing our Autism Book Guide for the Entire Family with some really great (and easy to understand) reading material as you start this journey.  We wish we would have known about these years ago!
