Episode 208-Cracking the Code: Insight into a Family's Autism Journey- Author of Tiny Wings Fiona Valentine

Send us Fan MailWhat happens when a family journey interweaves with the discovery of autism in their child? As the host, I had the privilege to invite Fiona from Australia, a strong and inspiring mother who shares her personal traversal through the maze of autism. Her tale is not just about recognising the signs in her younger daughter but also about how narratives from other women on the spectrum transformed their fear into a profound understanding of autism and altered their family's dynamic. Has your child been diagnosed with a neurodiverse condition and you find yourself asking 'what’s next'? Fiona's story could be your guide. She not only delves into her daughter's autism but also expounds on the value of knowledge, the power of open diagnosis disclosure, and its impact on peers. Fiona's story doesn't end there. As we continue, she goes on to discuss her other daughter's ADHD and potential autism diagnosis, emphasizing how understanding each other's unique neurology can lead to genuine acceptance and support.To wrap it up, Fiona's inspiration to write a book titled 'Tiny Wings' amplifies her mission to spread awareness about autism. She articulates how the Covid-19 pandemic influenced her family and their journey of acceptance, with her daughter transitioning from a library volunteer to an employee. As we conclude, Fiona extends her gratitude and hopes for future collaborations.
