Autism Awareness & Acceptance Month with Special Guest, Dr. Hannah Leport.: Grace for the Journey, Part 1

In this episode, we’re closing out our Autism Awareness and Acceptance Month series with part one of a powerful two-part conversation with Hannah Leport. Hannah is a family physician, a wife, and a mom to two children, one who is on the autism spectrum. She brings such a tender, honest perspective — not only as a medical professional, but as a mother who is learning, growing, grieving, celebrating, apologizing, advocating, and giving grace along the way. In part one, Hannah talks with us about the way labels can help us understand, but they never get to define who we are. She shares honestly about the fear she carries for her child’s future, the importance of not trying to operate from an empty cup, and what it looks like to trust God with the parts of our children’s stories we cannot control. We also talk about salvation, her son’s relationship with God, the humility of asking your child for forgiveness, and the grace we all need — for our children, for others, and for ourselves. This conversation is honest, thoughtful, faith-filled, and deeply human. It’s a beautiful reminder that every person is more than a diagnosis, more than a label, and more than what the world may assume. We’re so grateful to Hannah for helping us close this series with wisdom, vulnerability, and hope. 🎧 Listen Friday, and join us for part two next week. And remember… when we’re together, it’ll always be fun!
