  • My guest on the latest episode of The Aditi Surana Show is a high-performing professional who works with Meta (Industry Head - Commerce Platforms) and is a father to a beautiful autistic boy, Kabir. Celebrating this everyday unsung hero, we delve into the challenges, joys, and profound lessons that come with parenting an autistic child, shedding light on the unique experiences and perspectives that shape their lives.

    Prateek's conversation is special to me because he is honest about his struggles - parenting and otherwise. It's not that Prateek was born empathetic or his son changed him overnight. Through the years, he embarked on a personal journey of self-discovery, dedicating himself to cultivating empathy. And gradually, he began to perceive the world through his child's unique lens, gaining insight into what brought him joy, what troubled him, and how he sought to communicate.

    About Prateek Sinha:

    Prateek Sinha is a seasoned sales and marketing professional with a proven track record in product and brand development and currently works as the Industry Head - Commerce Platform for Meta. Prateek's journey goes beyond his professional success. He is a devoted father to his six-year-old son, Kabir, who faces the challenges of autism. Prateek's story is a testament to resilience and the unwavering love he pours into both his professional and personal life.
