In this heartfelt and honest conversation, Host Louloua Smadi El Hajj and guest Krystel Alhayek come together for Autism Awareness Month to unpack 5 common myths about autism that may be standing in the way of real growth—for parents, professionals, and autistic individuals themselves.
From the damaging belief that autistic children are just being “difficult,” to the myth that they always need supervision or must be “fixed” to live a happy life, this episode invites you to gently unlearn and reframe outdated ideas. Louloua and Krystel bring their personal and professional experiences to the table, offering real-life examples, thoughtful reflections, and a much-needed reminder: when we change the lens, we change the possibilities.
