Welcome to Embracing Autism!

Your child is autistic, now what? Parenting a child is often rewarding, but for parents of autistic children, it can be a struggle when communication, finances, or behavior is a barrier. Join hosts Lia & Matt McCabe, a neurodiverse couple raising two autistic daughters and the founders of the charity project AutismWish, in weekly discussions to provide parents with guidance, tips, resources, and a newfound perspective on Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Each week we will share our experience raising special needs children and tackle difficult or taboo subjects in the Autism world with encouragement and guidance on how to broaden your perspective while learning to understand and empathize with your autistic child, from weathering the storm to Embracing Autism.

Disclaimer: We are not doctors or therapists, so please always consult with your child’s physician before taking any of our advice. We try our absolute best to get everything right but we are only human, so please make sure to consult with an expert. If you feel anything has been misrepresented or inaccurate, we would love to hear from you! Please email us at podcast@autismwish.org.

I’m only on the the first episode and I’m in tears…..when he says he had to have a talk with family about his child possibly NOT growing out of these behaviors and it may be a struggle!!!! That right there is the hardest part. It’s been a struggle to talk with family and tell them information without them trying to ‘fix’ the situation instead of just supporting us. Thank you for sharing and being so open!! ❤️❤️❤️

As a mom of two NT girls and a NV ASD son, it is so refreshing to finally feel like I am not alone. This is such an isolating diagnosis for a parent and I have felt so alone since he was diagnosed in October of 2018 when he was 2. I was overwhelmed. Thank you thank you.

Can I just say that this is a wonderful podcast? I love seeing both mom and dads perspective on things and it’s just refreshing. They don’t hold back and I appreciate that.
