About this listen

In this episode, we’re talking about one of our favorite strategies for supporting individuals with autism: being proactive. We dive into how setting up thoughtful systems, routines, and supports ahead of time can make a huge difference in helping someone thrive—not just survive.

We share the proactive measures we’ve seen work time and time again with Alec, including packing a well-stocked backpack, using social stories, setting clear expectations, and even simple tools like counting. These are the kinds of things that don’t take a ton of time but can prevent so many meltdowns, miscommunications, and stressful moments.

Being proactive doesn’t mean trying to control everything—it means creating an environment where success is more likely. We hope this episode gives you ideas, encouragement, and a few practical tools to use in your own journey.
