An Honest Look at the Full Experience of Autism with Russell Lehmann
Listen now
Description
Motivational Speaker and Poet Russell Lehmann joins us to share his perspectives on autism and the human condition. Having spent most of his life in isolation, Russell has found his voice and independence in recent years. His passion for erasing stigma and stereotypes about autism is shared through his moving, spoken-word poetry. As Russell shares, "I like to say you hold up a mirror to anybody, and that's what autism looks like. I don't expect anyone to be able to tell that I have autism just by looking at me. But hopefully, someday they won't be as shocked to find out."   All Autism Talk (https://www.allautismtalk.com/) is sponsored by LEARN Behavioral (https://learnbehavioral.com).
