Episode 137- Catching up with Mama Fry (Eileen Shaklee)

Adventures in Autism

Today I’m catching up with returning guest, Eileen Shaklee aka Mama Fry. Eileen is the lady behind the very successful blog “Autism With a Side of Fries” and she’s basically the OG autism mom blogger. I’ve been a fan of Eileen’s for years and she was last on the pod back in early 2019! Today she’s giving us updates on her beloved Kiddo who is on the verge of adulthood (!!) and just getting started with job training. We talked about covid really threw a wrench in their plans and how they are slowly but surely getting back on track. Eileen and I also take a turn and discuss all things self care and beauty. One of the things Eileen and I bonded over was our mutual love of red lipstick. It was really fun to share tips and in my mind topics like this are just as important as therapy & autism resources! Lastly, we discuss the month of April and how she feels about autism acceptance, awareness and advocacy. I loved hearing Eileen’s take, especially since she’s been on this journey a lot longer then I have. Overall, we had such a great time chatting (per usual!) and I hope you enjoy listening!
