Beyond the Label Podcast
What is it like to parent a neurodivergent child? How do you navigate sibling relationships, family dynamics, and, well, the outside world? We're Ty and Lisa, parents of three kids. Nora and June are neurotypical, and Milo is autistic. We're sharing our experiences as a family. Hear stories about our day-to-day-life and conversations about the hope and grief and fear that are all a part of this journey. We also try to share some of the moments that make us laugh - there is plenty of joy in this life, too! We want to shine a light on what life is really like with a child who has a disability - pulling back the curtain and going beyond the label.

E8: Sister Sister - Part 2
June & Milo.
June is a bright, animated, and funny kid—and extremely stubborn. As the quintessential little sister, she wants Milo's attention, and she doesn’t care how she gets it.
While we’ve been working on behavioral interventions for Milo at home and school, June and her four-year-old antagonizing ways have been... a challenge.
They are at once enemies and the best of friends. They fight, and they laugh. They are always trying to get what the other has. They want to be together, but they also want their own space. Theirs is an evolving story of a neurodivergent and neurotypical sibling relationship—one that is still very much unfolding.
