  • Wonderful resource for parents!

    I really enjoy listening to Casey because she explains her experiences with her PDA son in a way that allows me to understand my own PDA son. Before her I struggled to understand his disability.

  • Speaks to me

    I feel like our daughter has been hiding in plain sight for the last few years. This podcast speaks to our experiences - those that we had normalised & struggled with for so long. Finally I’m picking up strategies that are helping me to unpick my daughter’s behaviour and respond in a different and sometimes opposite way.
