Understanding Autism - Help Me Help You Help the World

Donna Brendel, a late diagnosed autistic woman, shares her struggles with expressing her thoughts and ideas out loud. She introduces her podcast, 'I Should Say That Out Loud,' as a platform for herself and others to share their thoughts and experiences. Donna discusses her inspiration from other podcasters and YouTubers, such as Taylor Heaton, Jordan Peterson, and Justin Root. She outlines her plan to create a community where people can engage with each other and share their voices. Donna invites listeners to subscribe, comment, email, and potentially be a guest on her show. She has decided to only "lightly edit" this episode so that you can see more of the real Donna and her thought processing moments. She naturally uses a lot of eye movement to access information and thoughts in her brain before she is able to put her thoughts together and speak them out loud. Even with verbal abilities, expressing thoughts and ideas can be challenging for individuals with autism, but having a platform like a podcast can provide a space for them to share their voices. Drawing inspiration from other podcasters and YouTubers has helped Donna in developing ideas and strategies for content creation. Creating a community where people can engage with each other and share their experiences can lead to a better understanding and acceptance of autism, which is Donna's ultimate goal. Subscribing, commenting, and potentially being a guest on the podcast are ways for you, the listener to actively participate and contribute to the community.
