Past problems and old resentments can block our ability to support forward momentum for our autistic and neurodivergent children, teens, and young adults.

In this episode, I encourage you to take a look at the stories you’re telling.

Make peace with your past to free up time and energy for what’s in front of you in the present, and break out of old, unhelpful patterns.

  • Some of the sneaky thoughts that get in the way of forward momentum.
  • One of Debbie’s favorite beliefs about her kids that supports growth.
  • A simple thing you can do to break old patterns that aren’t helpful.
