Kelly and Claudia: Moms on the Spectrum

We're baaack!! Wow, it's been a long, long time. Since our last episode, life has really derailed then railed and then went sideways and needless to say, podcasting was last on our ever growing list of adult obligations.

We try to a...

We are so incredibly excited to have had the opportunity to sit down with our guest, Nick Clark. Nick is a self-identified autistic and is a dad to twin girls, one of whom is autistic. It was one of those times when you find yourself not wanting to end the conversation because there was so much to talk about. What a great perspective from a dedicated dad. As always, get comfy, grab some snacks and a drink and have a listen.

We did it!! We made it 10 whole episodes and to celebrate this momentous occasion, we brought on the OG's themselves, Gavin and Matthew. Our firstborn sons.

After a quick holiday break, we get right back into it with our very special guests, Carolyn and Morgan. We discuss the chaotic world of trying to teach our children who are on the spectrum. In the days of underpaid, overworked and stressed to the max, teachers seem to feel it worse than most...add in IEP's, stimming and meltdowns and you have the perfect storm! We laugh, cry, get angry, then we laugh and cry some more! Grab a...
