Interview with Eileen "Mama Fry" Shaklee

In this episode, we chat with Eileen "Mama Fry" Shaklee.

Eileen “Mama Fry” Shaklee is an autism advocate, speaker, writer (sort of), and fundraiser. Her most important project to date is raising her 18 year old autistic son and getting him ready for a world that isn’t always ready for autism. She is married and lives in New Jersey.

We chat with Eileen about the early years after diagnosis, the holidays, and moving from childhood to adulthood for our kids. We also discuss her current project she is working on with Monmouth Ocean Foundation for Children fundraising programming for 21+ adults.

Word of wisdom you will find in the episode, Eileen reminds us to enjoy where we are right now with our kids because you can't go back. We loved talking with Eileen and her amazing advice and spirit are a breath of fresh air in our community give her a follow and learn more below.
