12. Kids with Autism, the 5am Club & Building Intrinsic Motivation in Children with Jessie Ginsburg [Parenting in a Pandemic, Vol. 1]

When this busy mom, Jessie Ginsburg, of 2 isn't running around after her toddlers, she's out building 2 successful businesses: a children's therapy clinic in Los Angeles (Pediatric Therapy Playhouse) and her online education platform (Jessie Ginsburg, Speech-Language Pathologist) where she teaches other SLPs her unique method of treating children with autism.

In this episode we discuss a range of topics from tele-therapy during stay-at-home, managing kids with autism, juggling toddlers and building businesses and more!

Jessie talks about the importance of intrinsic motivation for kids, her morning routine (a.k.a. the 5am club), how she stays productive with limited childcare, how she keeps it fun with her kids at home, eliminating toys and material items plus the importance of pretend play for kids.
