Resilient Parenting a child with non verbal autism

In this episode I have a guest Stephanie Cox, she is my middle daughter and age 27 she has been blessed with a son Tristan who was born in December 2015. At age 2 and a half he was officially diagnosed with Non Verbal Autism level 3 (ASD). This was after a noticeable decline in his speech and his motor skills. In this episode Stephanie speaks openly about what it was like to identify that something wasn't right and the blame that was felt as a parent and how the process works in obtaining a diagnosis. We also discuss some of the day to day challenges that are faced for parents with children who have Autism. Some of the amazing milestones that Tristan has reached and will continue to reach with all of the hard work that goes in to parenting.Stephanie also talks about some of the support resources she uses and we discuss a typical shopping expedition and the challenges from the stares of people who don't understand to having to settle meltdowns in the isles. I hope you enjoy this episode.Support the showThe Resilience Movement explores resilience not as motivation or mindset, but as capacity the psychological, emotional, and identity foundations that allow people to perform, adapt, and sustain effectiveness through pressure, change, and adversity.Hosted by Donna Moulds, the podcast features in-depth conversations with leaders, psychologists, educators, and professionals whose work sits at the intersection of resilience, leadership, identity, and human performance.Drawing on Donna’s background in leadership, workforce development, and lived experience of navigating major life transitions, the show examines:Psychological readiness and emotional regulationIdentity, responsibility, and role transitionLeadership behaviour and cultural impactSustained performance without burnoutWhat it actually takes to adapt and rebuild when life changesThis is a considered, evidence-informed podcast for people who want to think clearly, lead responsibly, and navigate challenge without losing themselves in the process.The conversations also explore how people can develop the psychological skills required to adapt, recalibrate, and grow through change, rather than being defined or diminished by it.New episodes released regularly.Follow & Connect🌐 Website: https://theresiliencemovement.com.au 🎧 Apple Podc...
