In this powerful episode of Pieces For My Puzzle, we talk with Les Townsend, founder of BT Property Services, about how his son Colton’s autism diagnosis completely reshaped his perspective on parenting, purpose, and legacy. Faced with the reality of raising a child who falls into the “quiet space” between neurotypical and state-supported, Les turned frustration into determination—creating a business designed to provide stability, independence,
and a future not only for his son, but for other families walking a similar path.
Les opens up about the emotions of diagnosis, the challenges of navigating systems not built for kids like Colton, and how autism has taught him patience, resilience, and a deeper way of listening. We explore how his personal journey inspired his business, what it means to build a legacy rooted in love, and how his mission is resonating with other families in the Phoenix metro area.
