Today, my guest comes from Missouri. At the age of 58, Chris Mitchell, also known as the confident autistic, received a diagnosis of autism l. Instead of allowing autism to define him negatively, Chris chooses to let it define him positively. Despite his lifelong struggle with self-understanding (which began to make sense following his diagnosis), he has succeeded in numerous triumphs. Chris holds several life coaching credentials, with confidence coaching being his favorite. As part of his goal to empower people with autism and others to embrace autism with confidence, Chris, a digital developer, shares films about autism and confidence-building strategies for adults with autism on his YouTube channel, The Confident Autistic. Be sure to give it a listen!
