In this honest and divine conversation, Dr. Nay sits down with a bright young guest who lives on the autism spectrum and offers listeners a rare and heartfelt glimpse into how his uniquely wired mind works.
At just 5 years old, he shares how he processes thoughts in incredible detail—recalling specific events, planning for his upcoming birthday, and expressing how his brain organizes the world around him. His repetitive behaviors, which others might not understand, are actually calming rhythms that bring him peace. Through his speech patterns and communication style, we see how language flows differently but beautifully and how presence is sometimes more powerful than words.
This episode celebrates neurodiversity, the divine intelligence within difference, and the incredible potential within every child. Dr. Nay honors this young guest’s mind and reminds families that autism is not something to hide, fear, or rush to fix because it’s something to understand, support, and uplift.
Self Wins with Dr. Nay Podcast, support autism awareness and encourage families to seek early and compassionate diagnosis when a child shows signs of developmental difference. Because understanding opens doors and every child deserves to win.
