Navigating Life's Journey as an Aspie - Kerrin Maclean
Brand new books written by me as a NZ Autistic female author.
Discover the ups and downs of living life on the autism spectrum through the eyes of the author and navigator known online as Aspie Answers. Navigating Life's Journey as an Aspie is a heartfelt, honest, and empowering read that shares real life experiences of what it means to grow, learn and thrive as an Autistic person in today's world..
With warmth, humor and reflection, I myself as the author opens up about the challenges and victories of everyday life - from understanding my identity to embracing self - acceptance, relationships, sensory differences, and personal growth. This light shines the light on the beauty of Neurodiversity and the strength it takes to walk your own path.
Inside you will find:
*Real stories from lived experience as an Autistic adult
*Gentle insights into mental health, friendships and self-worth.
*Tips and reflections for navigating a neurotypical world
*Embracing who you are - without apology.
*Hope for anyone walking their own journey.
Whether you're Autistic or not, supporting someone who is, or simply wanting to learn more, Navigating Life's Journey as an Aspie is a reminder that everyone's journey is different - and that's what makes it meaningful.
