Episode 34: Our New Podcast Name, Why it Changed and the Exciting Future

Welcome to Autism Mastermind.  I was blindsighted at an IEP, a few years ago, with the word “transition”.  I needed to come up with what my daughter would be preparing to do after she left school. I had no idea.  So I sat around one night and brainstormed an idea. I thought - Why do we not have a group of parents and caregivers that come together and chat about our children's futures that is not associated with an organization that has already been established?  Share our thoughts, experiences, resources and build it if it’s not available in our community. I turned to social media and invited all of my autism family friends to join a meeting. I had no idea that others felt the same way and were lost on what to do next. I am a big believer in “We will figure it out” but why do I/We have to do this alone?  Chad and I started this podcast to document our daughters future and how we are going to build her life so that it would be exceptional, safe and fulfilling.   Coming together as a community to share information, share resources, plan futures and build what does not already exist… we are all “Autism Masterminds” we know our children and what they need. Let’s all share and learn from each other.  We are all in it together.  Autism Mastermind... In it together
