How Big Is the Sky: Parenting on the Spectrum with Kim Brown
✨ Episode 2 of Season 2 of Neurolicious is live! ✨
This week, we sit down with the incredible Kim Brown – a high school science and art teacher, and mum to two beautiful kids. Kim shares her family’s journey after her eldest son, Hudson, began showing signs of autism at age 2.
Before Hudson lost his speech, he asked Kim a powerful question: “How big is the sky?” 🌌 That moment sparked her to write the children’s picture book “How Big Is The Sky” – a story born from curiosity, wonder, and love.
In this episode, Kim opens up about the highs and lows of parenting on the spectrum. We dive into her family’s adventures camping in outback Australia, where tech detox meets nature – helping them reconnect by touching, feeling, and moving through the world around them. 🏕️🌿✨
This is the first of two heartfelt interviews with Kim, and we know you’ll fall in love with her family’s story just like we did. 💛
