How do you survive losing your 7-year-old child in a hospital room because mainstream doctors don't believe in your alternative approach and refuse to save him?

How do you move on without bitterness when you pay the ultimate price (your child)?

How do you actually GAIN from this experience and move through the different phases of grief instead of getting stuck in the darkness (and victim mentality)?

Kirsten is a light in the darkness for ANY parent who has lost a child or battle with the stress factors of having a child who struggles (maybe even because of mainstream medicine).

This podcast is the most heart-opening episode. I have ever recorded.
I remember when my friend, Kirsten Stendevad lost her child (he was 7).

In this episode, she shares:

What happened after she walked home from that hospital room where her son had just died because of old school medical practice. What did she say, do and think - and how did these words and decisions save her life, her other children's future (and so many other lives)?

The magic of choosing a path through the dark night of the soul and why "going up or going down is actually optional".

The art of having one son in Paradise and insisting on creating Paradise on earth for the children who are still with her.

Why the children who struggle (The special children) are here to wake us up to the fact that "business as usual" is forever GONE and why the feminine is SO important in any family.

How she has dealt with her "special child".

Why love is the answer.

The new paradigm: parenting, business, mothering and why you have to make big changes now and create time and space for yourself to ENJOY life.


We have cried many tears together and she is my biggest hero because she turned the most horrific experience into an awakening, that turned not only her -  but her other children into strong role models, lightworkers and....quite frankly...healers.

2 ways to work with me
Autism symptoms are not always (but sometimes)  spiritual. My son lost the symptoms that gave him the diagnosis, and lives a neurotypical life (independently) I have coached moms for 20 years.

1️⃣ Free consultation
Send me a list of symptoms and what you've tried so far.
I'll audit your child's issues and tell you what triggers your child's symptoms, and plan next steps to address them to get less stimming, tantrums, eloping, sensory issues, sleeplessness, and aggression without tests, protocols, or battling with your child. 

Write "audit" in the subj line to book a call with me. We can also connect via Telegram if you hate Zoom.

2️⃣ The Christian Autism Liberation Program (30 spots left for 2026/2027)
Reduce symptoms noticeably.  Without the hamster wheel of holistic healing, tests, or extreme diets.
