Today, we'll meet a family of five who move from the Bay Area to London.

In their new homeland, they discovered new ways to think about time, autism spectrum

disorder, and the power of homemade cookies.

Throughout the episode, we come to understand how the different motivations of each child

can guide how parents build a strategy toward individual fulfillment.

After our conversation, I'll introduce a concept from the science of visual perception.

And finally, a Dutch word that helps expand the footprint of fun before you have it.

Let's meet Leah and Bobby.

First ed disclaimer.

What you are about to listen to is not a professional counseling session.

Each episode is a one-time conversation, and the advice I offer does not constitute psychological

treatment or services substitute for professional diagnosis, intervention, or behavioral healthcare.

In order to protect their privacy, our guests have been given pseudonyms and some personal

details have been changed.

If you have concerns about your child's well-being or your own, seek out guidance from a medical

or mental health professional, good places to start, your child's pediatrician, the counseling

staff at your child's school, and the American Psychological Association's Comprehensive

Guide to Finding Resources in your State.

And now, onto the fun.

Leah and Bobby, welcome so much, and thank you for participating in our podcast today.

Hi.
