In this episode: autism self-advocate and NeuroGuides CEO & founder J. David Hall. (28 mins) David has three children, Asher, Cherith, and Levi, all living with ASD. After becoming heavily involved in autism advocacy, David himself learned he was also on the spectrum. He is the founder and CEO of NeuroGuides, a 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization that provides consultations and life coaching for autistic people, and educates businesses on inclusion. David discusses how he received his diagnosis, the importance of maximizing the potential of people with autism, the importance of advocacy by people that are actually on the spectrum, and how a third party can sometimes help discover interests when parents have been unable to.
