As a father of two daughters, one of whom has autism, I’ve learned that supporting my daughter requires more than just advocacy—it requires a healthy, balanced approach to my own well-being. When I first began navigating my daughter’s autism diagnosis, the stress was overwhelming. My work as a corporate lawyer, combined with parenting responsibilities, left me exhausted and burnt out. Functional medicine became a game-changer for me, helping me improve my energy, mental clarity, and overall health. I found that by focusing on my own health, I could show up as a stronger, more focused advocate for my daughter. I’d love to share how functional medicine can help other parents manage their health so they can be the best possible support for their children.
