Empowering Autistic Children Through Food and Fun with Gary Martinez

Inspired with Nika Lawrie

When Gary's world turned upside down after his daughter Monica was diagnosed with autism, he discovered that the key to unlocking her potential was as simple as a swing in the park or a balanced meal on the dinner table. Join us as we walk through Gary's life—a fitness trainer and massage therapist turned advocate for autism awareness—unraveling the intricacies of parenting a child with special needs. Through his story, we unearth how physical activities and diet can dramatically influence a child's development, behavior, and ability to thrive both at home and in school.
