Welcome to Episode 251 of Autism Parenting Secrets.

This week, we dive deep into one of the most overlooked factors keeping our kids from thriving — a dysregulated nervous system.

If your child seems anxious, reactive, or shut down, it’s not who they are — it’s how their body is responding to stress. When their system is stuck in survival mode, growth and connection can feel out of reach.

That’s why I’m thrilled to welcome back Dr. Tony Ebel, Pediatric Chiropractor and founder of The Perfect Storm framework. He leads PX Docs, a national network helping families calm the chaos by focusing on what’s happening neurologically.

When the nervous system resets, massive breakthroughs are possible. The path forward gets so much clearer.

If you’re ready to understand what’s really going on beneath the surface — and what you can do about it — this episode is for you.

Welcome to Episode 250 of Autism Parenting Secrets.

This episode is different.

It’s just me — no guest, no script — sharing the most important message I’ve ever delivered.

I’m pulling back the curtain on what’s really keeping parents stuck. And no, it’s not the diagnosis. It’s not a lack of options.

It’s that we’re not fully equipped for this journey — and that disempowerment leads to unnecessary suffering for us and our kids.

If you’ve been grinding, trying everything, and still feel like your child isn’t progressing, this episode is for you.

I get it. I’ve lived it. And now, I want to show you a better way — one that’s grounded, empowering, and incredibly effective.

This is your invitation to rise. To stop spinning. To lead with certainty, love, and purpose.

The secret this week is…

Welcome to Episode 249 of Autism Parenting Secrets.

This week, we welcome Kate Swenson, creator of Finding Cooper’s Voice (with over a million followers) and author of the national bestseller Forever Boy.

Her newest book, Autism Out Loud: Life with a Child on the Spectrum, from Diagnosis to Young Adulthood, released in April 2025, brings together three autism moms—Kate, Carrie Cariello, and Adrian Wood—each offering an honest look into their parenting journey.

This book is raw and real. It explores the ups, the downs, and the everyday wins—along with the harder truths, like how a diagnosis impacts marriage, family dynamics, and mental health.

At its heart, it’s a powerful reminder that you’re not alone—and that there’s strength in community and our shared stories.
