Show Notes
Discover what’s possible when obstacles become opportunities.
This week’s episode is a recording of one of our Global Autism Community exclusive events!
The topic of this roundtable discussion was Overcoming Obstacles. Participating in this event were autism self-advocates Stephanie De Kremer, Cassidy Hooper, Jeff Snyder, and David Sharif, as well as community members Kia Burton and Karen Shapiro.
As with previous live event recordings, the sound quality is a bit inconsistent because we hadn’t originally planned it as a podcast episode. However, I assure you that the stories and perspectives shared are really worth listening to.
In today’s conversation, we discuss:
- Setting boundaries
- Finding a job
- Making friends
- Dating
- Maintaining relationships
This episode with The Global Autism Community was originally released on November 4, 2021.
