Listen now
Description
Welcome to our first-ever father-and-son podcast! Michael Bouley is a fantastic dad to Hunter Bouley, age 21. Hunter was born with club foot affecting one leg, which led the doctors to think something else was happening. Around puberty, Hunter was diagnosed with XXY, and things started to make sense as to why he struggled in school with comprehension, math, and physical development. In the 7th grade, he went from homeschooling to public school for the first time. Despite being bullied for looking different over time, it taught Hunter to focus on his goals regardless of the setbacks he faced. Hunter has worked hard his entire life to overcome his challenges. His Instagram shows a well-defined muscular man who has devoted his life to nutrition and working out. He drives a forklift at a lumber yard using his visual memory while working with his hands. He loves hanging out with his family and large-mouth bass fishing. Despite having trouble with expressive language, Hunter knew sharing his story would help others know they are not alone.
