E101: Reviews of Books + Workshop and Bryce's Hyperacucis Appointment
This episode is a discussion about Bryce's audiologist appointment regarding his increasing hearing sensitivity. We review several books that have been sent to us that relate to autism. We also talk about a workshop that we did as a couple with Curated Family Therapeutics.
We have both recognized the importance of intentionally making time for ourselves, individually AND as a couple! This workshop gave us some tools to build upon that will help both of us remain aligned with our values and goals. This alignment will keep our marriage healthy and make us a stronger couple for parenting Bryce.

We are humbled and honored to follow our calling and be Autism Ambassadors while helping others understand our world a little more than they did before listening to the podcast. We also feel called to bring light to a community that has experienced dark days after the "diagnosis". (Luke 1:79)
