About this episode

Tiffany Henry discusses her decision to homeschool her autistic son and the challenges and rewards that come with it.

What happens when the traditional path no longer feels like the right one for your child? In this episode, I sit down with my friend Tiffany Henry as she opens up about the deeply personal decision to homeschool her autistic son. From navigating unmet needs in a conventional school setting to trusting her instincts as a mother, Tiffany shares the pivotal moments that led her to choose a different path. We dive into the real, unfiltered side of homeschooling—the challenges, the doubts, the logistical hurdles, and the emotional weight of stepping outside the norm. But we also explore the powerful rewards: the freedom to tailor learning, the strengthening of their bond, and the breakthroughs that happen when a child is truly seen and supported. If you’re a parent questioning whether the traditional system is serving your child… If you’ve felt that quiet nudge that there might be another way… If you’re wondering whether you have what it takes to do something different… This conversation will meet you right where you are—and maybe even give you the clarity and courage to explore what’s possible.
