Can Using Strengths Create Resilience and Transformation in Moms of Autistics?
You are on a lifelong journey as a mom. There are seasons that occur along the way. You can remain stagnant or grow in your journey.
When I talk about strengths, I am referring to something innate in each mom. Sometimes moms are not aware of the strengths they possess.
They likely have some underdeveloped strengths. Once moms build their strengths, they are in a good place to thrive in their autism journey and hit challenges out of the park.
Moms of autistics have a reservoir of inner strengths that fuels their unwavering devotion to the child. The key is to identify and build on those strengths. This is a challenge for all human beings, but I can help!
What do strengths look like in moms of autistics?
Some moms are observant and pay close attention to detail. We can scan a room for potential danger like no one’s business. Possible strengths in this area include judgment or prudence.
Commonly, things occur daily to break an autism mom’s focus. But when she is focused, she is unstoppable. She can switch gears easily and refocus on the current need at hand.
This mom’s strength is perseverance. She can regroup in the midst of challenges and press on.
Moms of autistics are often strong advocates for their children. This entails the strength of bravery and fairness.
The Power of Strengths in Moms of Autistics
We all have strengths, but we can’t use them until we are aware of them. Then we can strengthen them and bring things to a whole new level, which changes the game.
There are so many benefits for identifying and using your strengths. One of the biggest is the impact it has on your well-being, which influences your child’s well-being. How amazing is that!
I work with moms in my 4-month VIP program to help them identify their strengths and grow them. It is amazing to watch moms be at their best and thrive in their autism journey.
