The Turning Point: What Helped Me Grow in Ways I Never Expected

For years, Jeremy thought the world just didn’t make sense—and maybe it didn’t. Social cues felt like riddles. Emotions? A foreign language. But then something shifted. In this episode, we follow the story of an autistic adult who began to unlock something powerful: empathy and theory of mind. Not through pressure. Not through shame. But through curiosity, growth, and a willingness to ask, “What if there’s more to their story than I can see?”This isn’t a tale of “fixing” autism. It’s a story of expanding what’s possible. As our guest shares how understanding others changed how he understood himself, you’ll see the quiet beauty of transformation that doesn’t erase difference—it honors it. If you've ever felt stuck in your own head—or wondered how to truly connect with someone who is—this one’s for you.To learn more about NeuroFam, please check out https://www.ourneurofam.com/  To send us an email or question- shoot a message to [email protected]  Music for the show’s intro is provided (with permission) by Matt Langston & EleventySeven.
