Hey friends, welcome back to Adulting with Autism! I'm April Ratchford, your friendly occupational therapist mom, navigating life on the spectrum and raising an incredible young adult son with autism. This episode is a bit different and super important.

Today, we dive deep into being our true selves and tackling generational trauma, especially for BIPOC communities. Our special guest, Dr. Kareen Aristide, shares her wisdom on mental health, personal growth, and the importance of self-care. She’s an inspiring coach, author, and mother of five, ready to enlighten us all.
