161. The Resilient Parent: Reframing the Journey

In this episode of Not Your Average Autism Mom Podcast, your
host, Shannon Urquiola talks all about emotional resilience for
parents raising children on the autism spectrum.


She discussed the significance of emotional resilience,
emphasizing that it's not a fixed trait but a skill that can be
cultivated over time. She also explored specific scenarios where
you can gain resilience, from managing meltdowns to navigating
the educational system.


She introduced the concept of cognitive reframing, encouraging
parents to notice, challenge, and replace negative thoughts.


Emotional resilience is not about perfection but progress.
