Description 2
Victoria Lenormand shares her transformative journey from police officer to autism advocate after her son's diagnosis, revealing how unconventional choices led to unexpected healing and growth for her entire family.
• Former police officer whose life changed when her son was diagnosed with autism at age three
• Faced impossible demands balancing work while trying to help her son fit into traditional school
• Discovered during lockdown that her son thrived without school's constraints, rising from bottom to top of his class
• Changed diet completely, eliminating trigger foods and focusing on gut health with remarkable results in six weeks
• Traveled in a motorhome for three years providing experiential learning rather than traditional education
• Explored natural anxiety management using high-quality cacao as an alternative to medication
• Found that self-directed learning allowed her son to follow his interests while developing necessary skills
• Documented their journey in her book "The Magic of Not Fitting In" available on Amazon and IngramSpark
• Now coaches other families, sharing natural approaches to supporting neurodivergent children
If you're noticing issues with gut health or anxiety in your child, consider exploring natural approaches like dietary changes and cacao. Visit Victoria's website at geminidirections.co.uk for more information about her coaching and her book.
