What's it like to find out you have autism as an adult?
In this episode Melissa and Jane sit down with Steve, an adoptive dad and charity volunteer, to talk honestly about parenting two teenagers with neurodivergence.
Steve shares the story of his own autism diagnosis as an adult, and how that helped him support his children.
We also get into self-care that actually works for neurodivergent adults: reducing the constant mental noise, setting boundaries around socialising, and finding environments where you can thrive. Steve reflects on work, inclusion, and why he sometimes prefers a bit of chaos, plus what he has learned from volunteering with adoption and disability communities where “like recognises like” and families finally feel seen.
If you know someone parenting through diagnosis, disability, adoption, autism or ADHD, share this conversation with them, and if it helps, please subscribe and leave a review so more carers and dads can find it.
