We don’t talk enough about what happens to a woman when she has to fight for her child to be heard. Asia Cabello is here to put it on the record.

This week, Aisha sits down with content creator Asia Cabello — mom of three, longtime partner to Dwayne Cabello (whom she met at 13), and one of the most honest autism advocacy voices on the internet—for a conversation about the years that nearly broke her and the ones that rebuilt her.

Asia walks us through what it took to get her daughter diagnosed with autism: the pediatrician who told her to wait, the bias she ran into as a Black mom in the medical system, and the decision to uproot her family and move states so her children could get the care they deserved. She talks about parenting two children on the spectrum 13 months apart in years she barely remembers being present for. And then she talks about how she found her way back—through the gym, a book club, friendships she made in her 30s, and a marriage she’s intentional about choosing every single day.

They get into the racial bias Black mothers face in healthcare, why her husband had to push her to make new friends in her 30s, the morning routine that changed her marriage, the Cabello Couture mommy-and-me line, why “put your spouse first” is the controversial advice she stands by, and the affirmation she’s carrying into the next chapter.

If you’ve ever been told by a professional that what you knew was true wasn’t true—this conversation is for you.
