Description

Do you know someone who has an autism diagnosis? This is kind of a trick question, because I pretty much guarantee that you do, or that you know someone who loves someone that does. 

In this episode, my guest Nia Spencer and I talk about:

1. What autism really is.
2. Understanding the difference between being neurotypical and neurodivergent.
3. How having autism impacts the way people learn, work, and live.
4. Ways we can create a more inclusive and supportive environment for people with an autism diagnosis.
5. Practical tips and resources for parents navigating life with a loved one on the spectrum.
