Raising an Autistic Child in the Afghan-American Community - Medina’s Story


Listen Later

In this episode, we sit down with Medina Faizy-Hashemi, an Afghan-American mom raising an autistic son. Medina opens up about navigating diagnosis, cultural expectations, and the unique challenges families in the Afghan-American community face when seeking support. We talk about representation, storytelling, advocacy, and why every culture needs more understanding, visibility, and acceptance. It’s honest, powerful, and a conversation we’re honored to share.
