Ep.#39: My Son's Autism Diagnoses Taught Me The Power of Believing In Yourself

The Far Out Wisdom Podcast

My son Jacob, who is turning 5 next week, was diagnosed with Autism and his clinical psychologist said he is under the high functioning part of the spectrum. Jacob is doing so much better after getting speech therapy and we're in the process of getting help for his tantrums that can go on for hours if something disrupt his routine.
The experience that led to where we are now, taught me the value of believing in yourself even if no one does. Even if think you're dead wrong.
Like me being a mom and knowing that something is wrong with Jacob, you're like the mother of your creations and it is up to you help it grow. Are things not working out? Do you have to let some people go? I knew from my heart that my son is special and I'm not going to let anyone say otherwise. If you do the same with something that you believe in, who cares if it ends up growing up without certain people in it. That is like putting seeds in a pot without watering it. Get a plastic plant if you don't want to put work into something you deem your creation.
