A podcast for families living with hidden challenges, such as autism and other neurodiverse conditions…
…and for anyone else wanting to understand, love and support.
Podcast creator and director, Anna Oxley Rintoul, is a 40-something mum of three, juggling the joys and challenges of unique kids. Anna is also the founder of Takes a Village, a social enterprise that supports parents living with neurodiverse kids. Anna is also a coach and Head of People and Culture for bio-tech company Eden Brew.
Anna invites co-hosts to join her in conversation, interviews and story-telling, to build awareness, understanding and love to this growing community of families.
Our guests include individuals living with hidden challenges, parents, medical and therapy experts and community leaders.
Our mission is to build understanding, empathy and love for families living with one or more children who have ‘hidden’ conditions that make life harder in one way or another, we call this extra ‘zing’.
