In this fiery, deeply personal episode, Michelle tackles a growing trend in the autism parenting community: the rise of labels like “profound autism” and the quiet acceptance of helplessness that often comes with them.
Sparked by a viral reel of a crying child using his AAC device to say “I’m sad,” Michelle shares why she doesn’t see tragedy — she sees potential. She challenges the narrative that emotional expression from non-speaking children is mysterious or unreachable, and breaks down how belief, curiosity, and consistency can change everything.
If you’ve ever felt stuck.
If you’ve ever felt like giving up.
If you’ve been told, “this is just how it is”...
This episode is your reminder:
Your child is not their label.
You are not powerless.
And this is not where your story ends.
