Autism Parenting Secrets

The Past Reveals The Way Forward

Episode Summary

This is a discussion about how having a clear understanding of a child’s history can inform key next steps or actions a parent can take. There are environmental stressors that once identified can be addressed to promote wellness and healing.

Episode Notes

This week, we are joined by Beth Lambert, founder and executive director of Epidemic Answers, a non-profit organization whose vision is a world where parents and professionals are empowered with the knowledge, resources, and support essential to raising healthy and vibrant children in today’s world.

In this episode, we discuss the importance of looking back at the entirety of your child’s life (as far back as pre-conception) for clues or as Beth mentions bread crumbs  that help bring awareness on what might be currently going on.  By knowing the past you can make informed decisions for the present and the future. 

We also cover why parents must adopt an “I got this” attitude and embrace forgiveness.  Forgiveness is such an important process.  This helps you move from being stuck to being powerful.   Beth guides us through that process and illustrates how it opens the doors to be more observant as a parent and, as a result, helps us get to the root cause of whatever issue you're facing.
