Comedian, actor, and all-around brilliant mind Baron Vaughn joins us to talk about something deeply personal—his journey of self-discovery after his son’s autism diagnosis. In this episode, Baron generously shares what it’s like to question your own neurodivergence as an adult, the compassion he’s learning along the way, and what “being a person” even means when you start seeing yourself through a whole new lens. The best part? He’s mid-journey—thoughtful, educated, and honest, but still figuring it out. And fun fact: Baron and Alicia were both at the Boston University College of Fine Arts Acting Program. If you don’t know him as an epic stand-up, you might recognize him from Grace and Frankie. This episode could help a lot of people accept themselves in a new way. Share it, comment, and let’s keep the conversation going.
