In this powerful episode of Father Son Galaxy, we sit down with Jamiel Owens, an author, advocate, and the creator of The Ausome Show. Jamiel shares his deeply personal journey from a life filled with childhood trauma to becoming a dedicated father and advocate. He opens up about the pivotal moment that changed everything: when his son, Shane, called a trash man "daddy". This experience motivated him to fully commit to being a father and to create a safe space for other dads to discuss their experiences and emotions related to raising children with special needs. Jamiel also discusses his role as the family relations coordinator at the Center for Autism Research at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) and his work as a volunteer firefighter.
This is a valuable conversation for any father seeking connection, support, and a community that understands.
