About this episode

Have you heard these myths about autism advocacy and social media? Myth 1: Autism advocates are only focused on their own experiences. Myth 2: Autism advocacy on social media is just about raising awareness. Myth 3: Autism advocates don't make a real impact. I'll reveal the truth behind these myths, but first, let's dive deeper into the world of autism advocacy and social media.


My special guest is Dan Morgan Jones

Dan Morgan Jones, also known as "The Aspie World," is an established figure in the field of autism advocacy and social media entrepreneurship. With an acclaimed YouTube channel and a best-selling book titled "Autism for Adults," Dan has garnered recognition for his unwavering commitment to improving the lives of individuals on the autism spectrum. His late diagnosis of autism at 26 has fueled his passion for providing support and guidance to others navigating similar experiences. Through his extensive knowledge and candid discussions on sensory issues, special interests, and overcoming challenges, Dan has emerged as a prominent voice in the autism community. His dedication to raising awareness and fostering understanding has solidified his position as a respected influencer in the realm of autism advocacy.


The diagnosis doesn't change who you are. It just reinforces the idea that you're not crazy or you're not going crazy. - Dan Morgan Jones
