What does it really mean to provide neuroaffirming support for young people with disabilities? In this heartfelt and eye-opening episode of Navigating Disability, we sit down with Breanna Jenkins, founder of Soul Support, to unpack her journey as a late-diagnosed autistic woman, carer, and disability advocate.
From lived experience to founding a thriving support agency, Breanna shares how feeling safe and seen can transform the lives of neurodivergent children and their families. We explore the power of early intervention, the realities of support work, and the importance of creating inclusive group activities for both physical and neurodivergent disabilities.
Whether you're a parent, professional, or ally, this conversation is packed with insight, validation, and practical guidance on building dignity-affirming support systems that truly meet people where they are.
