Thomas Henley educates, normalizes, and actively pushes back against autistic stereotypes and stigma. Check out his highly rated podcast, Thoughty Auti - The Autism Podcast (on which I talked about AuDHD). 


Thomas has made multiple decisions in his life to combat stereotypes, including months of backpacking, and becoming a world-class martial artist, both of which he talks about today. 


We also touch on what some of the lingering stereotypes are, and what helps!

This is a slightly edited podcast that was recorded about a year ago for The Longer Road.
