Autism Dadcast: Episode 20 — “Parenting in Public: Diagnosis, Doubt & The Real Shit That Matters"


Listen Later

Gaz and Andy sit down with Jamie Jewitt, a dad of three navigating life in the public eye while raising his autistic daughter, Nora.

Jamie opens up about spotting the early signs, getting the diagnosis, and how it completely changed how he sees life, parenting, and success. He talks about the pressure of being in the public eye, dealing with trolls, the emotional rollercoaster of acceptance, and why he’s stopped worrying about milestones and started celebrating the little wins.

The lads dive deep into the raw stuff, guilt, fear, self-preservation, and those late-night “what if we’re not here one day” thoughts that every autism parent quietly wrestles with. But there’s plenty of laughter too, from Baby Shark sing-alongs to spelling “car” on the bedroom floor.

This one’s heavy, funny, and properly real. Exactly what Dadcast’s all about.
