Feelin' Guru V... What does it meeean? Although seeing a double rainbow is almost as awesome as seeing a family affected by autism embody their badass potential, it is still fairly rare. Why is it rare? Because the support level required to maximize freedom for families is far greater than what the current paradigm affords. Grocery shopping, sleeping, maintaining financial stability, even staying together in their homes...these are adventures that many families struggle daily to achieve. So, as you can imagine, getting in your car and driving to the beach for the day, hiking, biking, canoeing, skiing or even a stroll in the neighborhood pose extreme risk to some families and individuals living autism adventures. Our family participates in an array of adventures because we want to LIVE. We push the envelope. Whether we sit at home or venture into the mountains and even in the places in between, our day is a symphony of events orchestrated by the neurological chaos of autism. No matter what we do, we are challenged and always on the 'razor's edge of now.' -E. Tolle Our philosophy is dive in, say YES, Go Big and Go Home. I am Jen the Founder and CEO of FLY homes and DragonFLY landing. My Vision is big, bold & empowers the lives of many by simply saying YES to adventures that seem impossible. In order to say YES to this paradigm shift, we need more people, NOW. Great Understanding Requires Urgency, Vision and People. Because our belief is that we are all Gurus and have something unique to teach and since we are all affected by autism, we believe that providing this opportunity to connect will raise the bar and shift the paradigm. Love, connection and freedom are for all people. |
