Autism Super Mom

In this episode Dr. Annette Nunez and Maylene Johnson chat with Anne G. Bragg who is one Autism Super Mom. She shares how raising her middle daughter who is diagnosed with autism has brought her out of her shell and helped heal her on her life journey. Anne explains that her daughter is an extreme extrovert and has taught her to be more fearless. Through the years Anne has also been very active on social media where she shares information and quotes meant to be uplifting and to help other parents not feel so alone and overwhelmed. Her motto to live more, worry less is influenced by her daughter and is not only inspirational but also beneficial to us all! IN THIS EPISODE: MINDSHIFT (takeaways) The main point to remember is to not get overwhelmed by the label. Just look at the small goals that you can work on every week and work on things that are necessary. Start with little things and aim for more positive outcomes. I don't believe in changing anyone in a drastic way. Try to find the balance so everyone in your family can have a better life. Break things down and do a self-check every evening. Ask yourself these questions: Could I have done better with anything? If so, what? Was I more proactive than reactive today? Do not take things personally with behaviors or things that happen.Be a detective mom and do not to take your child's behaving out personally but look at the behavior as your child trying to communicate something. Be logical and not too reactive and do not worry too much.
