About this listen

The Moms Talk Autism Podcast is for parents raising children with special needs. We are four moms, all with autistic children and other neurodivergence. Teaching a special needs child to navigate the world around them comes with challenges and struggles. We want to talk about those challenges openly with you and others. We discuss grief, school, family balance, siblings, therapies, social conversations, behaviors, delays, diagnosis advocation, and marriage. We do not hold degrees in medicine or neuroscience, nor are we special education teachers, but we are experts in raising our kids and figuring out everything as we go. Think of this podcast as a coffee shop chat with your closest girlfriends. We want to talk, raise awareness, and help each other thrive with our neurodivergent families in a neurotypical world.

  • Beyond the Birds & Bees: Sex Ed for Neurodivergent Children w/ Amy Lang
    Jan 26 2026

    Explicit Content Warning: This episode is not for young ears.

    In this conversation, we sit down with sex educator Amy Lang, M.A. to tackle a topic many parents avoid: sex education for neurodivergent kids.

    Amy shares her story, along with practical tools for talking about puberty, consent, boundaries, and healthy relationships. Together, they explore why using correct language matters, how to normalize sexual feelings (without shame), and the unique challenges our kids face when it comes to navigating social interactions and sexuality.

    It’s a real, raw, and important conversation designed to empower parents to show up prepared—and to replace fear with confidence.

  • Motherhood and Autism: Real Talk on Parenting, Burnout, and Balance
    Jan 19 2026

    In this episode of Moms Talk Autism, we sit down with Sarah Kernion, a mom of three—including two autistic kids—to talk about the beautifully messy reality of motherhood. Sarah shares her honest experience navigating family dynamics, raising neurodiverse children, and learning (sometimes the hard way) why caregiver self-care is not optional.

    We talk flexibility in parenting, letting go of perfection, and the power of community support when things feel overwhelming. This conversation is a reminder that being present matters more than doing everything “right”—and that none of us are meant to do this alone.

    Come for the real talk, stay for the solidarity.

  • Creating Real Work Opportunities for Neurodiverse Adults
    Jan 12 2026

    In this episode, Jean and Brittney sit down with Jacob Blaeser from Ventures ATL to talk about employment opportunities for autistic and neurodiverse adults—and why the traditional workforce often gets it wrong.

    We discuss the unemployment gap in the neurodiverse community, how Ventures ATL approaches direct employment and support, and what redefining success in the workplace really looks like. Jacob also shares insights on hiring for potential, navigating the transition to adulthood, and the importance of community, communication, and human connection at work.

    This conversation is honest, hopeful, and a reminder that meaningful employment is possible when inclusion is intentional.
