Learning How to Forgive Yourself During The ASD/ Autism Spectrum Disorder Journey

Today I was able to interview to amazing women that both have amazing children on the autism spectrum. Jackie Hibbler and Tianna Smith tune in to listen to great moms with amazing testimonies.  Tianna Smith/ Ginaes’ Floetry Bio I am a St. Louis Native born April 17,1983 to mother Gina Terrell and Dad Todd Cole. I have 6 other siblings. My coming into the world was a bit hard on my body. According to my mother I faced some issues at birth but I pulled through. There was a purpose for me. I developed a strong love for poetry and music at the age of 12 and I've been blooming ever since. I was always the kid who’d known that I was different from others. I had what you call an old soul. I was often told I had been here before. I married my wonderful husband Theodore “Ted” Smith 12 years ago. My husband is my biggest fan. He has literally pushed me to this elevated level...I am a mother whose testimony plays the biggest role of who I am. I have children with multiple disabilities. At least that is the world's tag on them but I'd like to use the term "Children with the greatest abilities". Just like their mom I am raising young authors.

The Holy spirit is what prompts me to do what I do. I encourage and inspire through my many talents. I have multiple gifts that are activated. I compose, sing, dance, and motivationally speak. l delight in what I do because it is solely from my heart. I took a leap of faith towards making my dreams come true in 2018.
