from Inchstones with Sarah | Autism Parenting & Neurodiversity Insights · host Sarah Kernion | Profound Autism Mom and Advocate for Neurodiversity
Let’s face it, motherhood is already a wild ride...but raising a non-speaking autistic child? It’s a masterclass in heart, humor, and not having it all figured out. In this episode of the Inchstones podcast, Sarah sits down with Heidi Rome to swap stories about the real parenting grind: the messy, beautiful journey of loving kids who communicate in ways that go beyond words. They dish on why love isn’t about “fixing,” how to survive puberty meltdowns, and why showing up—again and again—is the real flex. So grab your oat milk latte, because this one’s for the moms who are rewriting the parenting playbook, one inchstone at a time.
