It’s Been A Year

 ~ Clearly Muddled Blog ~

It’s been a year of questions and answers, laughs and tears, disappointment, progress, new understandings, frustration, compassion, failures, success, a few gray hairs, and love. Always love.

Josh Has Autism is a year old! Fifty-two episodes in, and I’m still learning things I didn’t know about Josh, and about Autism. I’m also learning about myself as I say things out loud, that in some instances, I’ve never said out loud before. I’ve learned that good, bad, right, or wrong are subjective, and have the ability to limit a conversation, and stifle growth.

During this first year of our podcast, I talked – a lot – even when I didn’t quite know how I felt about a subject or found it difficult to find the words to match an emotion.  Josh, on the other hand…the guy that has a difficult time communicating, has done so brilliantly, and eloquently…and is funnier than me. That’s not funny!

Through the podcast, Josh and I have a newfound connection. Our goal was, and still is, to help others that are autistic and those that live with someone that is autistic. We started this to help others, but it turns out that we might be the ones helped the most.

Turns out, words are freedom and are the steps that lead to living out loud.

Leave us a note if you like this episode! Love to hear from you.
