From Struggle to Strength: A Father's Journey with Autism and the Power of Hope and Positivity

Book Cover

 

From Struggle to Strength:

A Father's Journey with Autism and the Power of Hope and Positivity


Many fathers resist assisting their children on the autism spectrum. 

Some are too stubborn or macho to accept the autism diagnosis. And once upon a time, Harry Psaros was that guy.

Harry wants to be a voice for dads in the autism fight. 

From Struggle to Strength was written so other dads can learn from Harry's mistakes, work with their family to support their child on the spectrum and their successful development, see how his son Gus is thriving with the support of both parents, and ultimately understand that an empowered mindset drives lasting growth and fulfillment in the journey with autism.

From practical advice for nurturing your child's growth to the mental attitudes and mindsets that parents of children with autism need to succeed, From Struggle to Strength helps fathers step up and be the support for their children that they long to be. 

Yes, there is confusion on the autism journey. No, there is no step-by-step guide book where you follow a recipe to help your child succeed. But, there is a way to be informed, to be supportive, and to create a unified front as a family fighting on this journey together.


"Harry shares his honesty, doubts and fears in From Struggle to Strength. You will laugh, cry, and be encouraged by his family's journey as they navigate ASD. Harry and his determined family prove that with the right support, challenges can become joys to celebrate." -Kelly Cain, Founder of Autism Caring Center
"Harry is a true contender against the relentless opponent we call 
autism. It bobs and weaves, but Harry reminds us, in an incredibly positive and powerful way, that we too have all the right moves. This book, no matter where you are in your journey, will be the encouragement you need in your corner of the ring!" 

-Carrie P. Holzer, Autism Mom and Author of Building Puzzles Under Water: An Autism Story

Fragmentation: Vol II: In Search Of


Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one. – Albert Einstein

Buried alive, Rodrigo Santos climbs from his desert grave surrounded by blood and destruction with no recollection of how he got there. Hitching a ride back home, Rodrigo goes back to his life as a wedding planner and club owner in Austin, Texas, convinced it was all a dream.

But Austin is nothing like he remembers. Murders occur everywhere he goes. Bridezillas with wild requests fill his days, while nightmares of a little girl and her teddy bear terrorize his dreams at night. She reminds Rodrigo of the evil of his past, which triggers his OCD in full force.

Suspicions rise as the lines between truth and hallucinations blur, and Rodrigo tailspins into depression. Whether it is mental illness, purgatory, or another dimension, Rodrigo must wallow through his past to find a tether to his reality before he is sent to hell.

In These Streets:

Reporting from the Front Lines of Inner-City Gun Violence


In These Streets pulls back the curtain on the gun violence crisis that continues to plague the most vulnerable communities in America. Fueled by the convergence of the COVID-19 pandemic, consistent systemic disenfranchisement and the social unrest that followed the murder of George Floyd, gun violence surged to unprecedented levels, devastating poor minority neighborhoods across the country. But In These Streets is not about fearmongering or empowering the systems in power, it's about prioritizing the voices of the people impacted and those doing the work to address the problem. With gripping narratives, shrew analysis and perspectives that are rarely heard from, In These Streets is a groundbreaking investigation into the deep-rooted causes of gun violence and the best ways for the country to come together and address it.
