  • Talking with a Pediatrician: Dr. Mary Jones
    Jan 2 2025
    Happy 2025! We are back with season 4!

    To kick off the new year, I spoke to Dr. Mary Jones, a pediatrician with personal ties to autism. Get insight into the pediatric side of autism as Dr. Jones talks about her own personal experiences with autism, how she's shaping her practice to adjust to the growing autism rates, and what both parents and the medical field can do to advocate for autistic individuals. We also talked about how race, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status affects the autism field, and how providers like her plan to build more equity in diagnosis and treatment. Links to both her website and Glow Pediatrics (another team reshaping the autism field) are below.
    On a technical note, this is the first episode that I have edited completely on my own (new year, new roles!). I'm on a learning curve with audio editing, so I apologize if anything sounds a bit off. I promise it will get better as I get the hang of things!

  • Interview: Jasen Autism Sensory Environment
    Jun 24 2024
    I sit down with the parents behind the Jasen Autism Sensory Environment, a sensory learning center in Palm Beach County for autistic and sensory need children and teens. We talk about what inspired the center, what they offer (and have coming up!), and what their journey with their teenage autistic son has taught them about autism, advocacy, and representation.
