In the middle of the worst meltdown this exhausted and desperate mom had ever experienced, an invitation arrived. It saved both her and her son. You have often received this same invitation. Have you already opened the envelope and RSVP'd "Yes"? If not, will you? Jenn Jordan shares who she is, what she's thinking in this brave authentic talk! JennJordanSpeaks.com Jenn Jordan has spent her entire adult life on the radio. For the last 17 years, she’s co-hosted the Jeff and Jenn Morning Show on Cincinnati’s Q102. She has had her hands extra full since 2001, attempting to balance crazy morning work hours, and being a single mom to her son, Jakob. Jakob was diagnosed with autism at 3 and a half and Jenn has made it her mission in life to understand and help him find his voice so he can live his best life. And somewhere in this mission, Jenn started to understand herself and find her own voice too. JennJordanSpeaks.com Www. JeffandJenn@Q102 Www. JeffandJenn@Q102 Www.

I listen to you every morning, and this, this was amazing. My son is autistic, and this just brought me to tears and made me rethink everything that ever was a struggle with my child. I got this. Unconditional love. Thank you Jenn, I needed to hear this today.

This is a must watch. As a mother of a child with special needs I find the message inspirational but I also think so many others can relate. Life is hard and this perspective and way of thinking can make it more manageable.

My son was just diagnosed with ASD. No one would believe me at first but I knew. When he was diagnosed it was a sense of relief. Thank you so much for this. I needed this.

I loved this so much. I live in Cincinnati and listen to the show all the time. I have an 11 year old son on the Spectrum and I have had more moments like that I can count. It's lovely to hear someone speak truthfully on it. Thank you!!!

I have two sons on the spectrum. Both different as night and day. My oldest has been having behavior problems and I realized that I was making it worse by internalizing it and taking it personally instead of trying to understand and relate to what he was going through. When I changed my reactions to his meltdowns and started to show understanding and that "unconditional love" I started to see changes. The meltdowns have become less as I start to allow him more autonomy. We forget that being autistic doesn't mean not capable of growing and learning. He's trying to assert his independence in a world that thinks he's not capable. I'm learning to help him gain that autonomy and it's helping us both grow in this new chapter in his life. He's 30. He is aware. I have to stop treating him like he's that little boy that needs mom to do everything for him.
