Embracing AutismAn AutismWish Podcast Author: Lia & Matt McCabe
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, an Autistic & ADHD 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.

EP 771 – What You Need To Know About Early Intervention
Thursday, 29 May, 2025
Today, we’re talking about something deeply personal: early autism screening and intervention. Our own 13-month-old is currently going through the process, and we want to share what that looks like, how it feels as a parent, and why early support matters—even if you're unsure or still waiting on a diagnosis. Whether you're just noticing signs or you’ve already started the referral process, this episode will walk you through: What early intervention actually is, What we’re experiencing right now with our toddler, and Why starting early doesn’t mean labeling—it means helping.
