Navigating Neurodiversity: Embracing Autism & Empowering Families - with Nia Spencer
Manage episode 362233201 series 3459860
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:
- What autism really is.
- Understanding the difference between being neurotypical and neurodivergent.
- How having autism impacts the way people learn, work, and live.
- Ways we can create a more inclusive and supportive environment for people with an autism diagnosis.
- Practical tips and resources for parents navigating life with a loved one on the spectrum.
