Great podcast for families of neurodivergent kids

This is a great podcast. Caio is warm and engaging and I learned a lot about kids with Autism. Highly recommend it and it’s family friendly.

Refreshing and Uplifting

What an uplifting show. Caio Ninja is a lovely kid and his interviews are fun and interesting but he is my grandson so I am biased. However I know you’ll love him too. We are so proud of him
