Making Peace with Autism, Paperback/Zoe Martin

You are invited into a Mother's heart as she tells you the story of the complete falling apart and re-building of her family, as one by one, they discover they are autistic. But this book isn't all about Autism, it is a memoir that's been written to show you what is possible when a mother no longer sees Autism as a medical disorder. As you read these pages, however and whenever you can fit it in, you'll see how Zoe led her family through the chaos, confusion and disconnection that plays out pre and post diagnosis, to what she would now call - their never ending journey of making peace with what is, as they uncover their unique truth and freedom. Raw, real, open and honest, her truth bombs will fill your heart with hope and comfort but above all, give you permission to forgive yourself for desperately trying 'to fix things'. Making Peace with Autism is a love story of radical acceptance and how we all, as we are now, have a right to exist. It will open you up even more to releasing the shame, guilt and grief of feeling like you are a bad parent. It offers a gentle path forward to what really matters - connection. It is your turn to lead your neurodivergent child from your courageous heart, in a way that needs only to make sense to you.
