Ep. 18 – How to Not Lose Sight of Yourself in the Process of Managing Your Child’s Needs

In this episode, host Rashidah invites guest author, special needs advocate, and entrepreneur Sheena E. on the podcast to discuss autism parenting, self-improvement and empowering mothers. Sheena E. is a self-published award-winning author who regained her love for writing after her youngest child was diagnosed with autism. The diagnosis led her down a path of self-discovery and reintroduced her to her childhood passion for writing. Sheena E. recommends establishing a self-care routine in addition to managing the child's needs, as this can empower and replenish a mother's emotional strength. Sheena's experience has inspired her to educate and empower others in the autism community.

Sheena E. has been featured in national publications such as Parents Magazine (April, 2019). Her literary works include the award-winning novel "Along Came Autism" (2017), and she then went on to co-author a children's book with her daughter, "Get to Know Monroe" (2017).
