Marriage, Holidays & Autism: The Honest Truth 💬

Hosted by Stuart & Emily | Episode 2 🎙️

In this episode of our podcast, we’re diving deep into what it’s really like going on holiday with a neurodivergent child — and how it can seriously test your marriage. As autism parents ourselves, we’re not sugar-coating it.

We’re talking about:

🌍 The ups and downs of travelling with our son Noah, who’s autistic

🧳 The things we wish we’d known — from special assistance at the airport to the sunflower lanyard, and finding a true home-from-home

🙈 Learning to stop caring what strangers think (easier said than done)

😂 Our funniest holiday horror stories — like the time Emily broke her ankle on our one and only trip abroad — in our “It’s Funny Now” segment

😤 This week’s “Can I Just Say” moment (AKA our moan of the week)

😳 The most absurd things people say to autism parents — and what we wish we could say back

💤 Plus, listener questions all about sleep struggles

Whether you're an autism parent (or think you might be!), have a loved one in a similar position or are just trying to understand life after diagnosis — this episode is real, relatable, and hopefully a little bit funny too.
