b"Founder of LakiKid: Sensory Tools for Home and Classroom with Jason Hsieh\\nNORD, the National Organization for Rare Diseases invited me to be a speaker at the 2020 Living Rare, Living Stronger Patient and Family Forum on a breakout panel for caregivers. I'm going to be talking about stress reduction and emotional well being as a caregiver and I'd love for you to join virtually July 18th-19th, 2020.\\xa0\\nToday I'm talking to Jason Hsieh, a local father whose son was diagnosed with autism and ADHD. There were limited resources and therapy opportunities in Japan at the time of the diagnosis, so his family moved to Seattle to get the help they needed for their son. He struggled to find affordable, quality products to help with his son's sleep, anxiety and sensory challenges so he created his own brand instead. LakiKid is a product design company and also a community of families helping each other through patient support groups and live Facebook seminars.\\xa0\\n\\nEPISODE HIGHLIGHTS\\nHow did your story begin in Japan?\\nDid you feel isolated and feel a need to connect with others in your community?\\nCan you tell us about your podcast and videocast?\\nCan you tell us about your company LakiKid?\\nDid you have issues around the school setting that you had to figure out for your son or which inspired any specific piece of your advocacy for making schools more inclusive?\\nWhat advice do you have for parents in the beginning of their journey?\\n\\nLINKS AND RESOURCES MENTIONED\\nNORD Living Rare, Living Stronger 2020 Registration\\nhttps://rarediseases.org/living-rare-forum/\\nLakiKid\\nhttps://lakikid.com/\\nAutism Parent Support Group\\n https://lakikid.com/pages/autism-parent-support-group\\nSensory Fitness Live with Matt Sloan\\nhttps://lakikid.com/pages/sensory-fitness-live\\nAsk An Autism Mom\\nhttps://lakikid.com/pages/ask-an-autism-mom\\n LakiKid FREE Printable Social Story\\n https://lakikid.com/pages/parents-survival-guide-to-coronavirus-covid-19#ebook\\nKultureCity\\nhttps://www.kulturecity.org/\\n Once Upon a Gene - Ep 019 - Neena Nizar and the Jansen's Foundation\\n https://effieparks.com/podcast/008-tanjs-akayy-jr78y-ja2e8-zanza-njkxy-83esr-z2wkz-kx2a4-3zgjf\\n\\nTUNE INTO THE ONCE UPON A GENE PODCAST\\nSpotify\\n Apple Podcasts\\nStitcher\\nOvercast\\n\\nCONNECT WITH EFFIE PARKS\\nWebsite\\nhttps://effieparks.com/\\nTwitter\\nhttps://twitter.com/OnceUponAGene\\nInstagram\\n https://www.instagram.com/onceuponagene.podcast/?hl=en\\nBuilt Ford Tough Facebook Group\\nhttps://www.facebook.com/groups/1877643259173346/"
