 In this special Autism Acceptance Month episode, I’m re-sharing an important and personal conversation with my oldest son, Gavin. Gavin is 25 years old, autistic, and immunocompromised. In this episode, we talk about his journey toward independent living and why he’s choosing to move into a group home. Gavin shares his thoughts, hopes, fears, and goals—including launching his own YouTube channel and building a sustainable future for himself. We discuss: What Gavin is looking for in a group home Health and hygiene concerns due to his compromised immune system The emotional challenges of touring potential homes Gavin’s budgeting process and side-hustle plans His passion for gaming and creating a relaxed, inclusive online space This is a real, unfiltered conversation about growing up, letting go, and navigating life with autism. Whether you're a parent, caregiver, or self-advocate, I hope this episode helps you feel seen and less alone. 🎧 Listen now and share with someone who needs to hear this.
