The Autism and Sensory Parenting Podcast


Sep 14, 2020

I found Alex on Instagram and when I read her profile I just knew that I had to interview her!  She is full of amazing positive energy and is a single mom that has raised twin Autistic boys!  She has learned so much on her journey and I wanted to make sure that you had the opportunity to hear what she has learned along the way.  I honestly think that we can learn so much from others that have gone through similar journeys and will have an easier time raising our own children as a result!

Alex Chart helps positive and overwhelmed mums of special educational needs children find that “me time” they crave so badly through my Health Warrior online support groups.

For you - Girl Stop Apologizing by Rachel Hollis 

For autism - The Reason I Jump by Naoki Higishida

Top 3 takeaways

1.) Stay calm and be patient to help your child recover from a meltdown.  This will also help you to reflect on why the meltdown happened and how to be proactive to prevent or minimize them.

2.) Allow your child to feel their emotions and teach them strategies to recognize the emotions that they are feeling.

3.) Make sure to take care of yourself so you can then take care of your children.  This is also important so you can advocate for your child!
