In this engaging episode of AutismRadio.org, our host Paul Cimins sits down with Registered Behavior Therapist, Stephanie Loibl, to discuss her determined efforts to revolutionize autism care. From sharing the tangible progress of her clients to her ambitious plan to implement Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy in Malawi, Africa, Stephanie's commitment and passion are clear throughout the episode.

Shining a spotlight on the critical shortage of ABA services in Malawi, Stephanie outlines her plan to provide essential training to caregivers, parents, and educators. Her impressive initiative was directly inspired by a parent of one of her clients from Malawi. From her firsthand experiences, Stephanie has a deep understanding of the stark difference between the healthcare systems in the U.S. and resource-limited regions.

Moving onto Stephanie's highly ambitious future plans, the episode discusses her aspiration to establish a therapy clinic in Malawi. This dream is now closer to reality thanks to advancements in video conferencing technologies. However, making this transformative vision a reality requires substantial funding. Consequently, Stephanie and her team have set up a GoFundMe campaign aiming to raise much-needed resources.

Documenting the journey towards improving autism support in Africa, this episode is an eye-opening exploration of the inspiring actions taken by individuals like Stephanie to address the urgent needs of the international autism community. The episode will captivate anyone interested in autism therapy and the vital steps being taken to increase global access to support.

Paul Cimins interviews Mitch Malloy, an American singer, best known as the former lead vocalist for the rock band Great White from 2018 to 2022.

Malloy studied music at Cornish College of the Arts in Seattle, Washington. He got his first break when he was signed to RCA. Malloy's self-titled first album featured session musicians such as Mickey Curry, Hugh McDonald and Michael Thompson.[1] His first single as a solo artist on RCA records, "Anything At All", was a top 20 rock charting hit and a pop hit in the US.[5] His third single, "Our Love Will Never Die", earned him an appearance on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.[1] His second album, Ceilings And Walls, featured guest musicians such as Bernie Leadon, Mike Rutherford and Paul Carrack.[6]

He auditioned to be the singer of hard rock band Van Halen after Sammy Hagar's departure.[7][8][9] Malloy recorded various demos with the band, and Eddie Van Halen gave Malloy an instrumental demo to use for his own endeavors. This song was released by Malloy in 2015 as "It's the Right Time".[10]The riff reemerged in the sessions leading up to Van Halen's 1998 studio album Van Halen III in the song "That's Why I Love You." The song was scrapped from the record in favor of "Josephina."[11]

Malloy has had a lengthy career featuring in various bands as lead singer, releasing solo albums, and making guest appearances as well. His latest album marks his first time completing an entire release all on his own.[12]

Paul Cimins interviews Manisha Lad, Neurodiversity Family Coach.

Her journey started as an Information Technology consultant and worked in the field with leading companies like Siebel Systems, Metlife, UBS bank in Tokyo. 2001 I decided to quit my career when our only son Akhil Lad was diagnosed with AUTISM.

Since then I educated myself to become an Holistic Health Coach and our education and treatment with Akhil changed our perspective of AUTISM from Behavior to Biomedical and NeuroSensory Motor disorder.

Our son Akhil Lad is now an adult though minimally speaking is taking Associate Science Degree with Rowan College of South Jersey. He also inspired us to start Akhil Autism Foundation.

I coach parents to get started on Autism Journey and understand them different puzzle pieces with right resources.
