Summary

Autism advocate James Hunt shares the realities of raising his two autistic sons. This episode covers everything from diagnosis and “grieving what you expected” to celebrating small “inchstones” like a first text saying “Hello Dad.” An honest conversation about parenting burnout, resilience and finding light on hard days.
