Description

Can you imagine navigating life through pictures? Our guest today, Samuel Huber, does just that! Diagnosed with autism at age 14, Samuel has a unique perspective on life and shares how his mind processes the world around him. We take a deep dive into his journey, from his late diagnosis and how it changed his life to the transformative role music plays in enhancing his social skills and brain function.Ever wondered how someone with autism navigates their world? Samuel shares his strategies, from overcoming anxiety to finding a haven in music. His insights extend to the nuances of adult life on the spectrum, from the workplace to romantic relationships. Samuel's journey with public speaking has also helped him connect with other people on the spectrum, and he generously imparts his techniques for navigating social situations.Finally, we challenge stereotypes, viewing autism as a culture rather than a disorder. Samuel emphasizes the importance of advocating for passions, especially in a college party setting, and the need for open communication between autistic and non-autistic people. He wraps up by highlighting the need for planning, preparation, and self-care. We hope this enlightening discussion changes your perspective on autism, offering a look into a mind that sees the world in a way that many of us can't imagine.https://tonymantor.comhttps://Facebook.com/tonymantorhttps://instagram.com/tonymantorhttps://twitter.com/tonymantorhttps://youtube.com/tonymantormusicintro/outro music bed written by T.

Autism is a complex neurodevelopmental condition that affects millions of people worldwide. It is characterized by difficulties in social interaction, communication, and repetitive behaviors. Although autism is becoming more widely recognized, there is still a lack of understanding and awareness surrounding the condition. As a result, many individuals and families affected by autism struggle to find the support and resources they need. Why Not Me The World podcast aims to bridge that gap by providing valuable information and insights into autism, fostering empathy and understanding, and promoting acceptance and inclusion. Nashville based Music Producer Tony Mantor explores the remarkable impact his guests make by empowering their voices in spreading awareness about autism and helping break down the barriers of understanding. Join Mantor and his guests as they delve into the world of autism and explore topics such as diagnosis, treatment, research, and personal stories. Together, we can create a more informed and compassionate society for individuals with autism.
