from Liftoff Journeys · host Liftoff Enterprises

Send us Fan MailImagine taking your child to a therapist for help with their behavior, only for the therapist to basically call you a bad parent and tell you it’s your fault they act the way they do? I sat down with Karen Thomas, the founder and CEO of Naturally Recovering Autism, and what she shared about her journey had my jaw drop.This mom spent over a decade and more than $100,000 of her own money researching, experimenting, and figuring out how to help her son recover from autism symptoms, naturally. Spoiler alert: She did it! Her son went from struggling in kindergarten to being a college graduate living independently, and she's helped other parents see incredible results too, including a mom whose nonverbal son started talking and reading within two months of starting Karen's program. This is a mom who refused to accept "there's nothing we can do" and built an entire recovery roadmap from scratch! And she did it all before AI. Whether you're a parent navigating autism, dealing with health challenges in your own family, or just trying to figure things out when nobody has the answers, you're going to feel so seen listening to this. Grab your copy of my new book the Trust Threshold, available on Amazon https://www.liftoffcompany.com/the-trust-threshold/Support the showSubscribe to our YouTube channelWatch the TV show "Liftoff with Jeanniey Walden" Follow us on XFollow us on InstagramTalk to us on FacebookMeet Jeanniey live - see where she will be next.
