Maria Iliou is your Director Manager, your Host for IMPROMPTU SCENES THEMES OF AUTISTIC ARTIST   on weekend Autism Shows on Saturday's. Maria is interviewing Anita Lesko on her upcoming book Autism Success, Autism Conferences, Success Mariage and living Independently I'm VERY excited to announce the upcoming release on April 1st of my new book! Using my life story as the backdrop, I describe in explicit detail how I use visualization and neuroplasticity to re-wire my brain to become a successful adult. I went from being an uncoordinated misfit kid to having a 30 year career in a high-stress fast-paced job, learn to ride horses over six foot high jumps, fly in an F-15 fighter jet. But most importantly, how I learned to function in everyday life- making eye contact, interacting with others, understanding body language, learning how to function at different jobs, what enabled me to successfully transition from high school, college, and into my career, developing relationships, getting married and having a happy, fulfilling, and productive life. I also figured out how to master an extremely high level of executive functioning which enables me to work as a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist. I faced endless daunting obstacles yet turned them into opportunity for personal growth. I give my Ten Step Guide for others to use to change their lives and reach dreams they never thought possible.
