My guest today is a special Mother's Day edition with Katie Asher. Katie is a devoted mother of five and founder of Asher House, who shares her inspiring journey of raising her son Houston, who has severe autism. Katie discusses the challenges of navigating trauma, loss, and an abusive past, all while advocating for Houston’s voice through groundbreaking communication methods like letter boards. She recounts the transformative moment when Houston, previously nonverbal, began spelling to communicate, revealing his profound intelligence and telepathic abilities, which reshaped her worldview and deepened their spiritual connection. Their story, detailed in their co-authored book The Book of Heaven, highlights resilience, faith, and the fight for recognition and inclusion for non-speaking individuals.

Katie also critiques systemic failures in education and healthcare, exposing how institutions often dismiss the capabilities of those with autism, prioritizing profit over humanity. She passionately advocates for presuming competence, emphasizing the need for trust, love, and proper motor coaching to unlock communication. Through her experiences, Katie calls for a societal shift toward kindness, truth, and justice, urging listeners to value every soul and embrace the spiritual abundance that fosters unity and hope. Join us for an emotional and thought-provoking conversation that challenges assumptions and celebrates the power of connection.
