The Autism Mom’s Potty Talk Podcast
I'm Michelle, an Autism Mom & Life Coach for Parents of Children with
Autism. I am expert in helping parents Potty Train and Improve the Communication Skills of their children, with a "straight forward" results-driven approach.
My mission is to help every child with Autism to reach their greatest potential by empowering the most important people in their lives, THEIR PARENTS! I provide Autism Parents with the mental, emotional and tactical tools and strategies to help their child with what I like to call the BIG 3, these are the 3 life skills I believe every child with Autism NEEDS to have a chance at life of independence, they are:
- Potty Training
- Communication
- Stopping Problem Behaviors (so they can sit, attend, and learn at school and home)
My group coaching program, the Champions for Our Children Masterclass was created to support parents to teach these vital life skills so their babies can thrive! This Podcast is the VOICE for those parents who are struggling, who have lost hope. I am here for you. Make a commitment to stick with me. I promise to keep you and your baby moving forward.
xoxo Michelle

Ep59 - Fighting The Good Fight… And Losing What Matters Most
In this episode, Michelle Rogers shares the powerful story of a mom who’s ready to “fight the good fight” after insurance denied her autistic daughter’s speech therapy — and how that same fight can quietly steal what matters most: our child’s progress.
Michelle unpacks the emotional trap so many autism parents fall into — battling systems that aren’t invested in their child’s outcome — while their child sits waiting to be taught. With her signature blend of compassion and tough love, Michelle reveals how redirecting that same fire inward can change everything.

You’ll walk away ready to take radical responsibility, become your child’s best teacher, and fight the real good fight — the one that leads to independence.
