In this episode, I'm thrilled to talk with Melissa, a local author with an international reach, a captivating storyteller, mother, and strong health and youth advocate. We'll be discussing the launch of her latest book, her inspiration, and the importance of fostering an inclusive and welcoming community for our young people.

Through her personal experiences, Melissa shares the journey of raising a child with special needs and the positive impact it has had on their family. We'll also talk about the therapies and support systems that have helped her son, Tom, thrive.
Join us as we uncover Melissa's inspiring story, the challenges and triumphs of living with Fragile X Syndrome, and the enduring bond between siblings. We'll also discuss the broader community's role in supporting families like Melissa's and the importance of awareness and inclusion.
