Episode Thirty One: An Adventure To A Deeper Meaning of Autism Awareness with Megan Carranza11/19/2018
On this week’s episode we chat with fellow podcaster and Autism Mom, Megan Carranza. We talk about her journey as part of the autism community, as a mom, and as a family.

Candidly, she shares how her perspective has changed on a variety of issues over the past few years and the deeper meaning we’ve come to with awareness. We also put a call to action for all parents out there that navigate and exits in the worlds of accessibility, diversity, and inclusion.
