Prosody

Prosody has been almost 18 years in the making, the antithesis of the saying, “Write what you know.” I don't know much about the developmental disorder that both my sister and dad have, but I've grown up understanding that the topic of disabilities have been painted in black-and-white for years. The multilayered stigmas that surround it have impacted two of the most important people in my life. Going into this podcast, I wanted to help myself (and others) relate to the experiences of those on the autism spectrum, as well as give voice to those with disabilities and stories that should be heard.
