Parenting is never a simple journey but when you’re raising neurodivergent children, the path can look completely different from what you once imagined. In our first episode of The Adjusted Life Podcast, Charles and I sit down together to talk openly about how our parenting styles have evolved, how we’ve learned to communicate better, and the ways we support each other through the hardest times.

We share our early experiences – from navigating medical challenges with the twins to understanding our children’s support needs. And discuss how those moments reshaped everything we thought we knew about parenting. We also touch on the importance of adjusting expectations, making accommodations without guilt, and recognising when your partner needs you to step in.

If you’re a parent walking a similar path, or you just want to hear a real conversation about the realities of raising neurodivergent kids, you’ll love this episode.
