What does it mean to raise more than one autistic child, while also navigating cultural expectations, diagnosis journeys, and a system that does not always see us?

In this powerful first episode of Inclusive Stories, Brooklyn sits down with Sua, a British legal practitioner and proud mum of three daughters, two of whom are autistic. Together, they explore the layered, emotional, and transformative experience of parenting multiple neurodivergent children.

This episode speaks to parents who are still finding their feet after diagnosis, those parenting in cultural spaces where autism is misunderstood, and families seeking real talk about advocacy, representation, and doing life differently.

🎙️ In This Episode, We Talk About:

• The emotional impact of parenting autistic children in a misunderstood world
• How Sua’s parenting evolved from her neurotypical first child to her two autistic daughters
• The role of culture, stigma, and silence in Black British families navigating autism
• Why representation matters in diagnosis, school, and support services
• The story behind the Eden Rose Project and how her daughter became an advocate
• What Sua wishes she knew earlier—and why we should stop waiting for “readiness” to start living

💬 Quote from the Episode: "Whether you are a believer, a non-believer, or lean more toward science… there is still hope." – Sua
