Her unwavering commitment to motherhood, education, and self-growth led her to embrace her story — not as a burden, but as a badge of survival and resilience.Now working full time as a Paraprofessional in the NYC DOE D75 division, Debbie continues to uplift others with her motto: “Turn what you're going through into something — make it a teachable moment. ”This episode is a heartfelt reminder that even through unimaginable pain, badass moms rise — and they don't do it quietly.Connect with Debbie on IG: @momgentas_backDon't forget to subscribe to the Autism for Badass Moms Podcast so you never miss an episode!If you found Debbie's story inspiring, please share with another autism mom, provider, loved one, or someone who would benefit.

Mother's Day can stir up a lot—especially when you're navigating life after divorce. Maybe your ex's voice is still echoing in your head, or your teens are too cool (or too cranky) to make plans. Maybe your kids aren't even with you this year. If any of that sounds familiar, this episode is here to help you mute the noise, return to yourself, and reclaim this day as something sacred and satisfying—no matter what it looks like on the outside. Together, we'll explore how to celebrate yourself without apology, even if no one else is showing up the way you hoped. I'll share what it means to be both realistic and radiant—from managing kids who are resistant or unavailable, to creating a solo tradition that fills your soul (including my own story of picnics, peace, and blooming flowers at the Arboretum). Because Mother's Day isn't about perfection. It's about presence. Whether you're feeling joyful, tender, or somewhere in between, this episode invites you to step into your power, choose your own joy, and design a Mother's Day that honors the incredible mom—and woman—you are.
