  • Summary

  • Todd talks about how the stories of living with autism have been much more important than any textbook, any medical journal or any lecture he’s ever been to. What families have shown him is that autism is to be lived and experienced and not just studied in s2. E2. N12. of the Otherness Podcast called Listening to the Spectrum. An Otherness Podcast Overview.

    Todd speaks to how much the Otherness Podcast has led to his personal growth. Particularly, he talks about how despite studying autism through traditional methods of medical school and medical training, the most fulfilling and thrilling parts of his career have come from learning from the people he’s met and talked to about real feelings.

    Reflection is a powerful tool for remembering what has been lived and felt so it can inform how we move forward. Todd takes time to remember what brought him to the creation of the Otherness Podcast and they are friendship, passion, and communication. As season 2 begins, there are memories of all of the meaningful stories that have already been told and how they create a longer narrative that will continue in season 2 and beyond. Stories of what it means to feel the vast spectrum of feelings that include terror, rage, sadness, and pain can create a venue to move into the humanity of autism and away from the diagnosis itself. We define our children by who they are as humans and the lens through which autism is viewed, while different, has a unique perspective that can actually open our minds up to humanity in a greater way. That's how the name of The Otherness Podcast came about. What does this person who sees and feels differently bring to me and what can I bring to them and share in the experience?
    These are the questions Todd asks himself when he speaks with of all of his guests and the families he works with professionally.
