Madison Marilla: Embracing Every Part of Me

In this week’s episode, Tay sits down with Madison Marilla and her dad, Brennan Marilla, from Love on the Spectrum! Madison shares the full story of her proposal, including the special moment her fiancé Tyler White asked her parents for their blessing, and what that experience meant to all of them. Madison and her dad open up about already being fans of the show before ever being contacted, what it felt like when the opportunity came their way, and why they ultimately decided to join. They also share more about Madison’s autism diagnosis, the early signs they noticed, and what that journey looked like for their family, including the therapies that supported her along the way. Madison talks about her specific experience with autism, what helps her feel calm when she’s overwhelmed, and the stigmas she hopes to break. She also shares her favorite part of herself, something she still dreams of doing, what makes her feel most proud, and the advice she would give to others!Be sure to follow Madison https://instagram.com/madison_marilla/!Shop Madison’s jewelry here: https://madizenusa.com/To email us your questions or share your story, you can reach out to [email protected] sure to rate, review, and follow the podcast so you don't miss an episode!
