  • Everything an autism parent needs

    These ladies are amazing! The podcast is a great way to immerse yourself in the autism world but at your own pace. They speak of their experiences in a respectful way and helped me get to my acceptance of all that came with my son’s diagnosis. Thank you for doing this for us parents out there looking for a lifeline!

    Also, Tash I just turned 40 so it was time to start writing reviews 😂

  • Thank you for being my village 💙

    I found this podcast a little over a year ago, when both of my kids were first diagnosed with autism. At the time, I didn't know where to turn.. my friends all have neurotypical kids and there were no autism groups near me.. this podcast gave me the village I needed to work through all of the challenges that come with a diagnosis.

  • Every episode is relatable

    I can’t wait to share the grandparents episode with my dad. I can’t wait to listen to the overstimulation episode because I know EVERY parents regardless if their child is neurodivergent or not could benefit from some pointers.

The Power of Self-Regulation in Parenting w/ Sara Intonato
