They discuss the impact of Silberman&#39;s book on the neurodivergent community and the importance of embracing neurodiversity. They delve into the history of autism and the misconceptions surrounding Hans Asperger, the legacy of autism, the shift in society&#39;s perspective on autism and the importance of finding support within the neurodivergent community. Silberman shares his perspective on the medical model of autism and we explore the impact of the book &#39;NeuroTribes&#39; in creating advocates for neurodiversity, the concept of the autism spectrum, the need for more frequent and dedicated opportunities for autistic children to engage in their special interests, as these interests can lead to meaningful and successful lives.</p><p><br></p><p>Steve Silberman: Award-winning science writer, author of <em>NeuroTribes: The Legacy of Autism and the Future of Neurodiversity</em> (Avery 2015).</p><p>Website: <a href=\"https://www.stevesilberman.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.stevesilberman.com/</a></p><p>Book: <a href=\"https://rb.gy/ibfb6q\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">NeuroTribes</a></p><p><br></p><p><em>Our Sponsors:</em></p><p><em>🧘‍♀️ <a href=\"https://bit.ly/ashleynde\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Ashley Dupuy – Integrative Coaching, Breathwork &amp; Hypnotherapy</a></em> &amp; <a href=\"https://insighttimer.com/AshleyDupuy\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://insighttimer.com/AshleyDupuy</a></p><p><br></p><p><em>🤝 Sophie James - Neurodivergent Mentoring: </em><a href=\"https://www.sophiejamesndmentoring.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">sophiejamesndmentoring.com</a></p><p><br></p><p><em>🎧 The Neurodivergent Experience</em> is available on <a href=\"https://open.spotify.com/show/4Ia5o6nDiR5mgGIXJNtyZ7?si=013ac4c6f1ed4b49\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Spotify</a>, <a href=\"https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-neurodivergent-experience/id1727199311\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Apple Podcasts</a>, and all major platforms.</p><p>🌈 Celebrate autistic voices with early access, ad-free listening, and our full archive at <a href=\"http://autisticcultureplus.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">AutisticCulturePlus.com</a></p><p><em>🌐 Visit</em><a href=\"http://www.autisticculturepodcast.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"> www.autisticculturepodcast.com</a></p>","author_name":"Jordan James and Simon Scott"}
