What if autism wasn’t the problem — but how we’ve been taught to see it, was?

In this episode, Jackie shares a heartfelt and honest conversation about parenting autistic children through the first two lenses of her SUPER Framework: Self-Awareness and Understanding.

We explore:

  • What you believe about autism — and how it can shape your approach to autism

  • Why behaviour is communication

  • How to shift from the “deficit” model to a neuro-affirming approach to Autism

  • How executive functioning, sensory overload, and social differences show up in everyday life

  • Why your child’s identity doesn’t need to be reshaped — but their environment might

Whether you’re navigating meltdowns, overwhelm, or just trying to find your feet — this episode is a gentle reset.

It's not teaching you 'another new strategy.' It's giving you a new lens.

🎧 Listen now — and let’s begin with you.
