I sit down with Christy to talk about her journey navigating the neurodiverse world and the profound transformation she’s experienced along the way. Christy opens up about how she had to replace the dreams she once had with new and exciting realities, all while facing the challenges of embracing her son’s autism diagnosis.She shares how she initially feared the word "autism" and the grief and survival mode she went into as she processed this new reality. Christy is refreshingly honest about the mix of emotions she felt—from fear to hope—and how she’s grown throughout this journey. She also reflects on how her faith played a pivotal role in her healing and growth, offering insight and strength through some of her toughest moments.Christy’s openness not only speaks to the reality that so many parents face but also brings hope and excitement for the future. Her story is one of resilience, faith, and finding joy in the unexpected.If Christy’s journey resonates with you, this episode is a must-listen.
