  • Ramon and Shamika Payne |Episode 19| The Legacy Lounge with Chris and Rene
    Mar 24 2024

    Episode 19 is now LIVE!

    As we near the beginning of April, which is Autism Awareness Month, we are beyond grateful to have had our latest guests, Ramon and Shamika Payne in the Lounge!

    Ramon and Shamika are parents of 3 incredible boys, Jeremiah, Johnathan and their youngest child Jaxon who has Autism.

    In this episode Ramon and Shamika share their story of raising a household with a child on the autism spectrum. Their testimony is incredibly transparent, sharing the highs of their journey but also the challenges. They also dispel myths that surround the diagnosis and shine light on the realities they face, in hopes of being a voice for other parents who have children on the spectrum that have either yet to be diagnosed due to fear, or have been diagnosed and are embarrassed.

    Ramon Payne is the program director for The Table Community Foundation where he works in developing after school programs.

    Shamika Payne works for the State of California in Social Services as a Health Program Specialist where she helps develop programs driven by Policy to provide oversight and monitoring to congregate care facilities in the State of California.

    In both of their careers, they have seen the need for people to learn about these kinds of disorders as the lack of knowledge can lead to bullying, neglect and misunderstanding.

    With this episode, we, at The Legacy Lounge hope this episode is illuminating to those who may lack or are seeking knowledge regarding the autism spectrum.

    The full episode is available now on all platforms!
