11|Silent Signals: Seeing the Signs We Miss
In this heartfelt episode, Nicki dives into the art of noticing the silent signals our non-verbal autistic children send every day. Through a personal story about her son’s disrupted evening walk and the meltdown that followed, Nicki shares how she learned to decode his unspoken needs by following his lead. This episode is a reminder to slow down, stay curious, and honor the unique ways our kids communicate—even without words. Nicki also offers a moment of faith-based encouragement, referencing Galatians 6:9, and invites listeners to join her coaching sessions or the Walk With Me Mom Community Group for support.
Key Takeaways:
· Non-verbal autistic children communicate through routines, behaviors, and subtle cues.
· Missing these signals can lead to meltdowns, but reflecting and observing can uncover their meaning.
· Parenting is about learning your child’s unique language, not just teaching them ours.
· You’re not failing—you’re sowing seeds of trust and love, even in the hardest moments.
