The Moms Talk Autism Podcast is for parents raising children with special needs.
We are four moms who are connected because we are all raising children with autism and other neurodivergent brains.
Navigating the world through a special needs child comes with challenges and struggles.
The 4 of us talk about how to navigate those challenges. We discuss grief, school, family balance, siblings, therapies, social conversations, behaviors, delays, diagnosis’s advocating, and marriage.
We may not hold degrees in neuroscience, special education teachers, and doctors, 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. Chatting about how to navigate the neurotypical world with our neurodivergent families.

SOS: Asking for Help (Pt 1 with Britt & Tash)
Welcome to our three-part series on asking for and receiving help from others. Brittney and Tash are starting this conversation by diving deep into some of the challenges of parenthood and why we DON’T ask for help. What stops us from letting others in?

Modern Mom Probs w/ Tara Clark!
Today we were able to chat with Tara Clark from Modern Mom Probs! If you haven’t found Tara online, you definitely should; her links are below! Today we had a great conversation about her son’s diagnosis. Jack was diagnosed in 4th grade with Developmental Coordination Disorder, also known as Dyspraxia. We discussed the ins and outs of their story, but it morphed into even more; a discussion about how one size doesn’t fit all and why it’s important that we follow our instincts.

Moms Talk Moms #5
This one is a bit wild, y’all. Just like Tash’s favorite chunky sweater. We talk about pet peeves, our favorite outfits and clothing, ways to unwind and relax, and our apps that we just can’t quit! This is exactly what it’s like when we are all in the same room. Lots of giggles, maybe a couple of swears. Just giving you a heads-up. 😉

Jonathan Alderson Pt. 3: Consequences and our Kids
WHAT DO I DO ABOUT THE OREOS?!?! :D (Inside joke… listen and you’ll understand!)
For a discussion on consequences, this one has a lot of laughs. It's important to laugh at ourselves, right?
How do we teach our kids consequences that empower them to make better choices? What is the framework around this? AND.. if we haven’t been the best with consequences in our home, how do we start now?
Great convo all about this but we also touched on:
6 Rules in Creating Consequences.
Teaching our kids rights versus privileges.
3 things that will mess it ALL up.
This one is meaty... Let’s discuss it! Take a listen and meet us on IG! -
Merry Go Round: Sleep
Welcome to the first of our Merry-Go-Round Episodes! We needed a fun way to revisit episode topics that we'd already done, but as you all know, certain topics are ever-changing. Much like a merry-go-round we just circle right back around. Today’s episode we touch on SLEEP! Let us know if there are any topics you'd like for us to revisit and update and we'll get on it!

Learning to Speak Up with Katie Gallardo
We love it when DM chats lead to podcast guests. Katie shares her personal story about her son’s diagnosis and therapy journey, specifically ABA. This led to her finding her voice, speaking up, and helping others in her area and state to receive more coverage for autism services. We all have to start somewhere!

Customer Reviews
Extremely helpful and relatable!
My son received an autism diagnosis this past year and I had no idea where to start with the information overload. Finding this podcast and these moms has been a lifesaver! Between their own experiences and the guests they have on the show I have learned so much!
💙
This show has helped me not feel so alone in the journey of my son being diagnosed with Autism.
Best podcast!!
Ever since finding this podcast last year I’ve felt less alone in my family’s Autism journey. This beautiful community of moms sharing the good and the hard make it feel less isolating. The girls are so relatable and knowledgeable. I always look forward to Monday's new episode. Thanks to the 4 of you taking the time out of your already busy schedules to share with us mommas.
