Welcome to the very last episode of Homebase Hope. What a journey it has been! I have loved every minute of this podcast – from the interviews to the editing – knowing that this is a resource that will live on forever for parents of children on the spectrum. I started this podcast to reach more parents and to give you a smorgasbord of ideas and interventions – so you can pick and choose what works for you and your family (and what doesn’t)….because there is not a one-size fits all approach to the complexities of autism. I hope that you have gotten as much out of it as I have. Thank you for your support. You are all amazing. 
Today, in our last conversation, we are talking to Ariella Lew – a qualified paediatric nurse and Director of Kids on Track Consultancy, based in Melbourne. Ariella specialises in child’s behaviour and is simply incredible. We dive into defiance and the kids who say ‘no’ to everything, or simply refuse to follow instructions. How can we best support them? How can we change our thinking? This final episode is not to be missed…..
See you on the flip side guys. Head to @homebasehope on Instagram to continue to follow my personal journey. Big love xxxx

Today we are talking about one of the most important topics I think we can cover – big feelings and self regulation! It doesn’t matter what age or stage your child is at, this podcast is going to be relevant. I’m super excited to be speaking with Katie Crosby – an Occupational Therapist based in the States. Katie specialises in emotions, behaviours and relationships through the lifespan. I connected with Katie over Instagram (as you do these days) and I was just blown away by her wealth of knowledge and how much brilliant content she shares with her community. So if your on Instagram go check her out @thrivinglittles. Get ready to open your mind and learn how to think differently when it comes to your child’s ‘big emotions’…..

You can go to all the therapy sessions in the world, but at the end of the day if the family home environment isn’t functioning well…..therapy certainly won’t be as helpful! Meet Sharon Collon. She’s an ADHD coach passionate about helping parents create home environments that are functional and joyful and by streamlining the day to day tasks with innovative systems and routines, you can get back time for the important things like enjoying your children.
Sharon’s husband and eldest son have severe ADHD.  She tried everything for her son; occupational therapy, speech therapy, GAPS Diet, RPA Diet, Paleo Diet, Integrative Paediatricians, Developmental Paediatricians, Child Psychologists, cutting out all colours and preservatives, behavioural therapy and then different medications.  Everything helped to a certain degree but home life was exhausting.  So Sharon began developing routines to try and make my home life easier. She noticed that the more routined and organised her family became the calmer the ADHD family members were. Listen in to learn more about how Sharon has calmed the chaos at home and all about her course that can help you do the same.
