#241 Tracy Lemoine, Art and Autism
(Airdate: April 30, 2024) Maryanne interviews Tracy Lemoine, who juggles careers as a massage therapist and an artist while raising an autistic child. As a single mother, it took her years to get the proper diagnosis for her child. Not all counselors or therapists are trained to recognize the symptoms in a young child. And, as Tracy points out, an early diagnosis can make quite a difference in terms of getting proper schooling and other help. Tracy moved here shortly before the big pandemic lockdown. That timing also contributed to slow connections both for her business and for her child. But now her massage business, Shining Star Massage, is up and running. She’s also showing her art dubbed “Heart N Soul Art” at Art Walk and a number of galleries.
