Are you disappointed because your effort to turn autism and ADHD symptoms around naturally isn't bringing in the results you were hoping for?

Despite your faith in God and the massive amount of energy, time, and money you've put into autism diets, tests, protocols, practitioners, or therapies?

Want to learn how to go from walking on eggshells - trying to prevent meltdowns, eloping, aggression, picky eating, stimming to less sympoms, more bonding, normality, sleep, and independence (for both you and your child)?

If you're longing for tantrum-free trips to church and shops, being able to visit friends, sleep through the night, and see your child connect with other people - welcome - this is your place.

I'm Ninka-Bernadette Mauritson. My son lost all the symptoms that gave him an autism diagnosis and is now a fully independent adult with a full-time job, a completely normal life, a driver's licence, and healthy interests.

I'm an ex-New Age, Christian coach to autism moms, founder of, and an expert with 19 years of experience. I've helped hundreds of moms worldwide become experts in turning symptoms around for their child through my faith-based Autism Turnaround Program.

I help autism moms become experts in reading and addressing their child's symptoms instead of chasing experts and answers.

This is not another podcast to put you on the hamster wheel of extreme autism diets, ABA or OT therapy, detoxes, homeopathy, tests, juicing, supplements, or detoxes.

The Barefoot Autism Warriors turn autism around podcast is for crunchy, holistic, and ambitious moms who want a simple strategy to get their life, marriage, freedom, and child back.

We turn moms into experts by lived experience, putting peace and Jesus at the center, and healing yourself first.

#214: WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO MY AUTISTIC CHILD WHEN I'M GONE?

Thursday, June 18, 2026 • Duration 01:00:44

WHO WILL CARE FOR MY CHILD WHEN I'M GONE?

Shannon from t4autism and Ninka-Bernadette Mauritson..

Shannon is the first and only mom of an un-healed adult, profoundly autistic child that I've met who is willing to use her story to spare other moms from carrying diapers for 20 years, living in isolation, exhaustion, and fear....

This moment from our conversation says it all:

"You pulled your son out, Ninka. And now he's independent, and you are helping younger moms do the same. I want that- I wanted that. But I'm not jealous anymore..." As Shannon wiped the grief off her face with the back of her hand, she continued:

"It is well with my soul now."

This conversation is the most important interview, you will ever hear.

It's a glimpse into the future (if you don't listen to her warning and advice NOW).

You need to prepare for the future NOW and do everything

It's a story of love, hope, strength and OVERCOMING grief, bitterness, divorce, suicidal thoughts and despair.

It's proof that God uses elders and veteran moms like Shannon and I for different purposes - to support moms like you...

Shannon and I talked about ALL the taboos:

Why thoughts like: "I don't know what to do and I can't bear to think about what will happen to my child if I die ARE NOT AN OPTION!

Losing EVERYTHING: Marriage, house, friends, future dreams and a social life to autism.

The FUTURE PREP LIST: Keeping your child safe emotionally, financially and practically if something happens to you.

Why Shannon wish she had met me when her son was diagnosed and not now - where turning symptoms around isn't an option for her anymore.

ABA hustlers and how wasting 70K on useless therapies broke her marriage and cost her everything.

Divorce - the recipe for disaster and why it happened to us.

The traumatic day in the doctor's office where we lost our children to autism (WARNING, vaccines).

The moms who were broken by autism and lost their lives because of this..

The "START LIVING LIFE AGAIN" guide to GET HELP, sitters, create a team, be bold and outgoing and how to prep restaurants and talk to people instead of hiding and isolating at home.

I love this woman with all my heart. She's an incredible woman - and the way that she's surrendered to God in the darkest phases of her life WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE AND INSPIRE YOU TO LIVE INSTEAD OF SURVIVING!

#213 THE FIRST MELTDOWN-FREE HOLIDAY WE’VE EVER HAD. NO MORE SPECIAL NEEDS.

Thursday, May 28, 2026 • Duration 31:08

She Tried EVERYTHING for Autism Meltdowns… Then This Happened

For years, holidays felt impossible for this family.

She feared the holiday season just as much as you (probably) are?

Vacations were WORSE. Packing bags triggered meltdowns.
Car rides ended in chaos.
Aggression, overwhelm, screaming, tears, survival mode.
No rest.

Then everything changed.

In this deeply emotional interview with Ninka-Bernadette Mauritson from Barefoot Autism Warriors, she shares:

how she experienced their FIRST meltdown-free holidays the moment she unticked “special educational needs” on her son’s forms, how nervous system healing changed their family dynamic, why therapies weren’t enough, how her marriage, motherhood, and faith transformed, how she finally took a SPA DAY while her husband and boys swam peacefully

One of the most powerful moments in this episode is when she says:

“ special needs? That’s not my son anymore.”

This episode is for ambitious, crunchy, exhausted autism moms who feel trapped in holiday survival mode and wonder if peace is actually possible. It still is.

Nothing is impossible for God.

Premiering:
"THE MELTDOWN LIBERATION INTENSIVE."
If you want to learn what triggers holiday meltdowns in your child, and the strategy that leads to more peace for your child specifically, I'm launching a brand new "7 DAY MELT DOWN LIBERATION INTENSIVE " on June 15.

#212 AUTISM RECOVERY FOR CHRISTIAN MOMS. NOT DELIVERANCE. NO DECREE & DECLARE..

Friday, May 8, 2026 • Duration 33:47

I've never shared this about autism symptoms!

I've just uploaded this training session to the moms in my autism liberation program.

IF you're wrestling with God AND symptoms like eloping, aggression, sleepless nights, nonverbal autism, stimming...you need to watch it, too.

In my community, prayers for changed symptoms are answered every month (I'll share one of the most amazing case stories in the next episode. ) In this episode, I'm sharing why and how...

I only realized this profound truth this week. For me it is a breakthrough for autism recovery.'

The Bible has sacred information about your child, the symptoms, and how to deal with them.

These verses reveal how to block healing and how to surrender to God's will. It's INSANELY FASCINATING.

It's linked to neuroscience, your nervous system, Luke's Gospel, trauma healing, stress types, and emotional healing.

Autism symptoms are supposed to bring you closer to God and reveal His plan. If we're focusing on the outcome, trying to get rid of symptoms, we're rebuking THE VERY CROSS that God is using to reveal HIS PLAN and HIS PURPOSE FOR YOUR LIFE RIGHT NOW.

This is HUGE.

The disciples made similar mistakes when they rebuked the children, and Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me". Are you bringing your child to Jesus through the dark valley, and are you coming to Him as a child?

#211: DOES GOD ALWAYS HEAL AUTISM? "Decree, declare" and other false teachings.

Thursday, March 26, 2026 • Duration 25:39

Does God always heal?

If so, is it true that if you pray, believe, and have enough faith, God will answer your prayers? remove autism symptoms?

In other words, they are simply not DOING enough (and you should blame your lack of faith or minimal understanding of God's supernatural power?)

Can Jesus heal everyone? Yes. Absolutely. Does he? A whole different story altogether...And what you believe is either in line with scripture or turning you away from truth...(Satan's favorite strategy).

That's what they say - and they are trending on social media...If you don't have enough things to feel ashamed of - they have more for your collection.

Who are "they"?

They are Christian. Autism moms. They like each others post about "autism demon deliverance" and faith healing.

At first glance, they sound like they believe in you.

They pray for your children and tell you how you can recover your child if you believe, decree, and declare healing and "come out of agreement with" autism.

If you're not super careful, you'll fall for this, too. They ARE good people. They DO have good intentions. That's why they're used by the enemy. To distract you and waste your time...Turn you away from God's truth.

Even I got intrigued and messaged them on Instagram. I even went on Zoom to meet up with one of these mothers....until I realized a disturbing truth about these well-meaning mamas.

A truth that's as deceptive and destructive as New Age spirituality and occultism.

A truth that can prevent you from getting involved in something that gives you MORE shame, more work, and more confusion about symptoms, God's plan for you, and how to help your child.

This belief spreads like wildfire online right now. The biggest names behind the movement - which is the closest you get to manifestation and occultism dressed up as Christianity - are some of the most dangerous false teachers out there. And they have deceived these moms into deceiving you.

#210: WHAT REACTIVE, AGGRESSIVE DOGS HAVE IN COMMON WITH REACTIVE KIDS WITH AUTISM! And how to help them.

Thursday, March 12, 2026 • Duration 29:17

Your child is a reactive, aggressive border collie in New York.
Misunderstood. Misplaced. Miserable.

Reactive, aggressive kids and border collies are at high risk for being placed in "facilities" when caregivers can't deal with the dangerous behaviours anymore.

Not because they are hopeless cases. But because of the hidden messages behind reactivity, regression, and aggression that I'll reveal in today's episode.

You have more in common with owners of aggressive dogs than "ordinary parents of neurotypical kids."

💔 It isolates you.
💔 It's embarrassing.
💔 It's heartbreaking.

You're both hiding from people, walking on eggshells, or burned out from dealing with this. You've tried everything (except the steps that I shared with my clients recently in today's recording).

Before you say, "How dare you compare my child to a pet?" - let me ask:

Are you willing to be provoked in return for fewer public meltdowns and aggressive outbursts?

I'm willing to risk offending you to help you escape the stress that you (and your autistic child) are experiencing. Let's explore this idea together in the podcast.

You deserve better. That's why I'm sharing a recent group coaching session that I did to help autism moms inside my community.

#209: WHY GOD HASN'T HEALED YOUR CHILD FROM AUTISM YET.

Thursday, February 19, 2026 • Duration 17:04

99 % of Christian autism moms miss these 3 hidden reasons why your child's symptoms like anger, meltdowns, rigidity, sleeplessness, and nonverbal autism PERSIST.

TODAY ON THE PODCAST I'LL REVEAL:

💗 Why your child is nonverbal - The Muted Mother Connection: The hidden root cause in unhealed childhood trauma. Why mothers without a voice/boundaries often have children who don't speak.

💗 The tantrum-trigger! The secret "crust" around your heart: The real reason why children can't heal in the presence of a mother who's physically there, but unavailable due to the crust of self-protection.

💗 Regression, sleeplessness, eloping, and resistance to healing: Why Jesus only healed one man at the pool of Bethesda, and how you might prevent your child's (and your own healing) by not answering the Biblical question from Jesus: "Do you want to be made well"?

💗 Love starvation = no recovery for your child: Are you repeating a dysfunctional "doormat" pattern, rebelling against your past, or are you truly anchored in God's covenant?

💗 The Fear of change = no recovery: You will secretly prevent healing until you understand how to deal with the loss of who you used to be as an autism mom with a sick child.

You don't need to do more, work harder, or chase therapies, supplements, or practitioners. When you align your recovery plan with God's order and spot your self-sabotage patterns, it will affect your child's symptoms.

#208: WARNING AGAINST TELEPATHY TAPES FOR AUTISM. DEMONIC, SPIRITUAL OPPRESSION GUARANTEED!

Tuesday, January 20, 2026 • Duration 01:38:42

Telepathy for non-speaking autistics. It sounds fascinating. It sounds like a miracle.

But this is not exploring new science. This is exploring an Old Evil.

So far, a child's dramatic death (in a bathtub) and eerie ghost-encounters doesn't seem to stop them.

I hope my shocking podcast episode (active link - not button) with Marci and Seth Julin will help stop this trendbefore more lives are lost.

"THE TELEPATHY TAPES PODCAST" by Ky Dickens is the podcast and a "SUPERNATURAL SPELLING" method cherished by autism moms of non-speakers that just beat Joe Rogan as "most popular podcast".

Telepathy tapes are also the most dangerous and destructive trend in the autism community right now.

Why should you listen:

💗 To protect yourself from the spiritual grooming and manipulation that happens RIGHT now. Where big influencers prey on vulnerable mothers and take advantage of their desperate desire to communicate with their non-speaking child.

💗 Understand how non-speakers - through "telepathy" are exposed to danger that can lead to severe damage both physically and mentally (and death) before it is too late.

💗 Get the strategy to close the spiritual doors. If you've already tried Telepathy and the assisted spelling linked to this, we walk you through exactly how to renounce these practices, and watch these "abilities" (and the torment that comes with them) vanish instantly.

💗 Realize the dark, truly shocking truth about the lies that this podcast promotes:
That non-speakers bring messages from Jesus, know languages that they've never learned, can read minds, and visit The Dalai Lama and God in one trip to a shared mental space called "The Hill."

💗 Understand exactly why you MUST protect your child against telepathy, "The telepathy tapes" and the facilitated spelling they're promoting, even though pastors and Christians are talking about this at the moment.

💗 Get sound, Biblical insights about all the claims and sound doctrine that debunks the pseudoscience and spiritual dangers by Marci and Seth Julin. The founders of "Heart and Mind Ministries". They're supporting doctors, nurses, health facilitators, and practitioners who wanna step away from telepathy & energy medicine.For Marci, getting involved with telepathy and energy medicine practices led to severe health issues, one suicide, and one death. And she got extremely ill from engaging in this.

#207: 4 PATTERNS THAT PREVENTED MOMS FROM TURNING SYMPTOMS AROUND IN 2025 (Case Studies).

Tuesday, January 6, 2026 • Duration 22:10

In this New Year’s first podcast episode, I’ll break down “THE FOUR PATTERNS THAT PREVENTED MOMS FROM TURNING AUTISM SYMPTOMS AROUND IN 2025.” I’m pretty sure numbers 1 and 4 will surprise you (a lot).

We’re talking about….

The mindset traps.

The strategy gaps.

The spiritual blockers…

…..that I see happen over and over again. Based on 70+ audits - working with intelligent, driven, and faith-based (or curious) moms like you.

You need to know this to set up a strategy that actually works this season, not just temporary, fragile results.

You know a lot about nutrition and diet. You have a spiritual or faith-based approach to healing.

But. You have changed. You’re no longer the same as when you first suspected that your child was different. You have outgrown the strategies, most of the moms, and the practitioners you used to rely on.

Your family, siblings in the shadow, husbands - are no longer able to hold the pressure, and it’s threatening to steal the childhood and the life quality for all family members. Something HAS to change. NOW.

You’re probably sensing a big shift where the ambition has changed.

We no longer “just want to remove symptoms”; we want future independence, life skills, and emotional intelligence.

Adding more tools or therapies, thinking that the more you do, the less symptoms you will see - has the opposite effect (long term).

Let’s change that…

But there are massive root causes preventing this turnaround.

You cannot "head on a stick" your way out of this. You can’t abandon yourself and save your child at the same time.

Why should you listen?

💗 You will identify if you are stuck in the "War Zone Model." I explain why firing at everything in panic mode backfires and how to stop hitting the wrong targets.
💗 You'll understand the "Expert Trap" that hits year 2 or 3. Discover why knowing more than your practitioner (and feeling like you've outgrown the support groups) leaves you with more responsibility and less support—and how to fix that vacuum.

#206: 19 YEARS OF TURNING AUTISM SYMPTOMS AROUND. THE PRINCIPLES THAT MADE IT HAPPEN!

Thursday, December 11, 2025 • Duration 38:53

I'm celebrating 19 years of consistent, sustainable removal of the symptoms that gave my son the diagnosis. Not just turning symptoms around slightly, but full remission and filling the gaps in development afterwards, and then developing a normal life for him, for me and the family, and also for the moms that I work with.

I want to give you ideas, hope for what is possible, and a peek behind the scenes, reveal the practicalities, principles, framework, and spiritual growth that were required to build this.

Success is not = my child got a little bit better for a while and then regressed back to new symptoms or problems - NO!

Success is defined by sustainable, controlled, predictable turnaround of symptoms, progress, and development year after year - for two decades.

In this podcast episode - I'm finally sharing: 19 years of consistent, systematic autism turnaround results. The principles that made it possible!

In her practice as a coach and in her program, Ninka-Bernadette Mauritson helps moms like you overcome symptoms by becoming an expert without burning out and without that hamster wheel of holistic healing.

For ambitious, intelligent moms stuck between confusion and hope, wrestling with God about the dream of more independence and freedom - Ninka is that Bible focused strategy partner who shows you what to do and turn symptoms into full-blown escape plans.

Moving you towards less symptoms, more independence for you and your child.
Without involving the child and without turning me into your new guru.

Why should you listen?

1. It will give you ideas, hope for what is possible, and a peek behind the scenes, the practicalities, framework, and spiritual growth that were required to build this.

2. You will learn how to replace burnout, trial and error, and stress with peaceful, enjoyable strategies that create consistent, predictable, and lasting changes. Plus leaves time for siblings, fun, and rest with your partner AND time for yourself.

3. You'll understand how the hustle culture, over-performance, and unhealed trauma block recovery results and the (challenging, but effective) way to face generational chaos in order to find peace and healing.4. You will understand how to prioritize stamina, systems, peace, and a calm nervous system over fancy strategies, hectic healing, and overwhelm, and get MORE results FASTER by doing less and moving slowly through this. And so much more.

#205: MASTER EMOTIONS AND SPIRITUAL ATTACKS AS AN AUTISM MOM (with Dr. Kevin Chapman)

Thursday, November 20, 2025 • Duration 41:34

This Bible - focused, clinical psychologist is VERY DIRECT!

"Pride and acceptance of extreme symptoms is not of God." It's important for you to know God's truth about this, if you've decided to bear the unbearable (endless stimming, screaming, and tantrums)....that's not the Biblical way to handle it...

Did you know that God's word has a lot to say about your intense emotions and extreme symptoms?

Did you know that you have a spiritual enemy that wants to steal, kill, and destroy your family (and your child's future)

Did you know that many of the symptoms you're seeing in your child are spiritual in nature - and do you know what to do to stop them?

Are you ready to set yourself free from spiritual attacks, procrastination, depression, and anxiety as you're navigating your child's autism recovery journey?

This episode gives you a REAL spiritual and emotional strategy that NO ONE HAS EVER REVEALED TO YOU.

Why you should listen:

💗 You'll be equipped with Biblical, spiritual weapons to handle symptoms and chaos in your life that is NOT OF GOD.
💗 You'll learn how to step out of worry and fear. This will replace hopelessness, anxiety, and a victim mentality.
💗 You'll learn the surprising (dark ) truth about procrastination and how God wants you to end the evil cycle of self-sabotage.
