Autism Mothering in the Wild with the Moms of "Moms Talk Autism Podcast"

Parenting autism can be deeply isolating—even when surrounded by people. Inchstones is the #1 Voice of Moms and Caregivers of Children with Profound Autism.  Season 2 of the Inchstones Podcast opens with a powerful roundtable conversation featuring the MOMS TALK AUTISM moms—a reminder that parenting autism doesn’t have to happen in isolation. In this episode, Sarah Kernion explores how caregiver stories create meaning when shared, even when experiences differ. From Facebook groups to text chains, autism moms discuss how community provides grounding, validation, and perspective—without erasing the deeply individual realities each family lives. This conversation centers on disability inclusion at its root: caregivers supporting caregivers. It sets the tone for Season 2 as a space where honesty matters more than perfection, and where being understood can change everything.
