Episode 11 (Part 2) - Hunter Trost - A Son's Experience

from Exploring The Spectrum · host Julia Mirer MD

What becomes possible when an autistic child grows up with a mother who always believed he was capable? In this episode, Hunter Trost joins us to share his perspectives on common myths about autism, the importance of support systems, and the impact of a mother who never gave up. Hunter makes it clear that every autistic individual has their own story, but also offers incredible insights about what might actually be happening when you see someone shut down and avoid socializing. He shares stories of his childhood that shaped who he has become, and offers hope and advice for parents and individuals alike who are currently navigating a world that wasn’t built for them.
