About this episode

When Julianna Scott’s son was diagnosed autistic at two, doctors predicted he would never be mainstreamed in school, drive, or live independently. Today, at 25, he has accomplished all three. Julianna joins Tony Mantor to share her family’s journey through autism, anxiety, depression, OCD, behavioral challenges, and advocacy—and why parents should focus less on predictions and more on progress, possibility, and the child in front of them.
