  • Applied Behavioral Analysis: Autism Therapy and Parent Support

    Applied Behavioral Analysis: Autism Therapy and Parent Support
    Dec 3 2024
    Today, we will be exploring the evolving world of Applied Behavioral Analysis (ABA) with Dr. Mary and our returning guest Angel Wilson.

    From autism therapy innovations to practical advice for parents, this episode is packed with insights to help you better navigate your autism journey. Listen in as Angel explains how Spark Guidance transitioned from family-focused services to training providers like teachers and daycare staff. Our previous episode with Angel, discussing ABA was one of the podcast's most popular episodes. Enjoy!

    After 15 years in the autism field, Angel had held nearly every position in it. From Therapist, to Developmental Specialist, Supervisor, Trainer, Assessor, Interventionist...she learned and saw a LOT. What she noticed, though, were the concerns coming from families and providers alike; a lot of them knew OF autism, but didn't really know ABOUT autism.
    SPARC Guidance was created to answer these concerns. Since becoming a full time business, SPARC has trained over 120 providers (daycare staff, teachers, coordinators, and administrators) on what autism is and how to better understand autistic individuals. In 2022, the mission gained a new platform with SPARC Up, a podcast that centers on all things autism.

  • Marriage, Autism, and Addiction: A Vulnerable Journey Together

    Marriage, Autism, and Addiction: A Vulnerable Journey Together
    Nov 20 2024
    In this episode, Jeff and I open up about a very personal journey we’ve experienced as a couple, touching on autism, the complexities of addiction, and the impact on our marriage.

    Initially, Jeff’s autism diagnosis was hard to accept, but over time, we embraced it as a key part of our relationship and individual growth. However, the journey didn’t stop there. As we continued to work on our relationship, another layer of challenge arose when addiction entered the picture. I discuss the sense of betrayal I felt and the toll it took on me, as well as the steps we took to seek healing together.

    This episode is about transparency, vulnerability, and learning to grow together through the hardest trials.

  • Dr Mary speaks with Traci Neal, Speaker Poet

    Dr Mary speaks with Traci Neal, Speaker Poet
    Jul 9 2024
    Dr Mary is joined by Traci Neal, Speaker Poet.

    Traci Neal knew she wanted to write at 5 years old but didn't begin writing poetry until 13 and then performing at 14. As a teenager, poetry becomes her outlet to deal with bullying & having low-self esteem.

    Her passion for public speaking comes ten years later after many attempts to become an elementary school teacher. Feeling like a total failure, she discovered God had a different plan for her life. She now uses her poetry to speak to others and wants to share her life lessons in her book series, Lynn Learns Lessons, as a means to inspire youth.
