ABOUT US

The Full Story

As a single mother of an autistic daughter, I have always felt the need for her to be accepted and respected wherever we go. Often, I found myself sad, upset, or in uncomfortable situations—eventually having to explain her condition after receiving "looks" or comments from people who didn't realize she was on the spectrum.

 

From managing meltdowns and overstimulation to navigating sensory issues in public, I would often end up frustrated or crying in my car. I felt helpless, alone, and simply wished the world was a better place for autistic individuals. Managing the hardships of raising a child with high support needs while dealing with the ignorance of society led to constant burnout.

Tired and overwhelmed, I began searching for shirts that raise autism awareness—something that would let people "get the message" without me having to say a word. Unfortunately, I didn't find much, and being a petite woman made finding the right fit even harder. This inspired me to let my imagination run wild and create something unique.

Social media helped me realize how many of us are out there raising autistic children or supporting loved ones on the spectrum. I realized there is a massive need for awareness, and I knew I needed to create pieces for all shapes and sizes.

Our Mission

Our goal is to raise awareness in a fun, positive, and affordable way—because we know our expenses are already high enough. We want to keep a positive vibe without underestimating the difficulties of this journey. Our products focus on a “fun, accepting, and kind” energy that neurodivergent individuals deserve. It’s time to not just wait for change, but to be the change. Every one of us has a place in this world; like a puzzle piece, each of us is unique.

Lastly, as a mom who has been through it all, I want every parent to feel like this website is a space where they truly belong. I hope this site brings a giggle after a rough day and offers you a sense of motivation. As a Mexican-American, I am also proud to raise awareness for both the Spanish and English-speaking communities.
