In this episode I’m talking with Clain Udy author of Rebranding Autism, A Guide to Seeing Strength on the Spectrum. In this touching story Clain talks about his autistic son and his family’s desire for him to lead a “normal” life. When something unexpected happened his view changed. From that day forward Clain knew that in order for his son to thrive there had to be something else, something better than what many call “normal.” His unstoppable determination to find answers led him to understand that how we see autism can determine our success.
