The presenter will give 10 of her best tips to keep it all together! Staar Fields and her husband Quentin have a beautiful son Gabriel, who has recently been diagnosed with autism. He was born at 1lb 10oz, and is now 6 years old. Grace (Gabriel's twin) only lived for six days, said Staar. Staar states The loss was of course devastating, but has become an inspiration to her because challenges come to make you stronger. She further shares with others that, You are not your circumstances, because the rest of your life can be the best of your life if you don't give up when it gets hard. She has spent the past 15 years as a motivational speaker and now running the Staar Fields Foundation which helps children with autism and special needs.
