I want to start by wishing you a Merry Christmas, and this episode of Autism Rocks and Rolls is my gift to you. I talk about fishing in this episode and why people with autism spectrum disorders might enjoy it. I also liken autism to the components on a fishing pole and the equipment in a fisherman's tacklebox. I even talk about the different kinds of fishing and how they represent autism. Lastly, I explain the reasons why people with autism spectrum disorders may quit fishing in the middle of a fishing expedition. https://omegaquant.com/new-research-on-the-connection-between-fish-consumption-and-autism/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g1-aAdGSsr8 https://www.youtube.com/shorts/Ccex2U7LL1Y https://castforkids.org/ https://autismanglers.org/

Sam Mitchell approached me, and was just so dynamic that I had to have him on the podcast to talk about Autism and his podcast Autism Rocks and Rolls, and you'll see why here!I definitely couldn't do any better putting Sam into words, so I'm copying these from his initial email: "I am a high-functioning human being on the autism spectrum, but have a mission: to show people that I am not broken, do not need to be fixed, there is no normal in this world, and I am successful, with autism. I want to celebrate the successes of all people. I embrace who I am and feel as though everyone should do the same." And this: "I also am a motivational speaker, entrepreneur, sell merchandise, have several sponsors, sell ad space, am writer and blogger, and love to promote my podcast and business. I also have a published TED Talk called Souled Structure."I loved talking with Sam, and learning all about the fascinating guests he's had on his podcast, and the great things he's doing with it. He is definitely not broken; he's an inspration - and he's a college student!Here's the message he wanted everyone to leave with from our conversation: "You can be successful no matter what condition or disability you have."

Tune in if you're ready to challenge misconceptions, embrace authenticity and gain insights on supporting and understanding those on the autism spectrum. More info & ways to connect - https://www.tacosfallapart.com/podcast-live-show/podcast-guests/sam-mitchell Sam Mitchell, the host of the podcast Autism Rocks and Rolls, joined MommaFoxFire for a discussion centered around autism, self-acceptance, and the evolving understanding of mental health conditions. Sam shared his personal journey and insights, emphasizing the importance of embracing one's true self and overcoming societal misconceptions. Sam, who was diagnosed with autism in late 2021, noted the increasing prevalence of autism diagnoses but refuted claims of overdiagnosis. He attributed the rise in diagnoses to improved awareness, research, and access to mental health care. Sam pointed out that while some may perceive an overemphasis on mental health issues in modern discussions, it's crucial to recognize that these conditions are becoming more visible and better understood. He argued that the push to acknowledge these conditions is not about overdiagnosis but about breaking down previous stigmas and misconceptions. The conversation examined the impact of social media in creating supportive communities for individuals with autism and other mental health conditions. Sam highlighted that social media platforms have become crucial for people to connect, share experiences, and find understanding, which was less accessible just a decade ago. He agreed with MommaFoxFire that, while social media has its drawbacks, it has been instrumental in normalizing conversations about mental health and providing a sense of community. The discussion also touched upon the challenges and benefits of therapy. Sam admitted that traditional therapy didn't always work for him, as it often felt like a repetitive cycle of problem identification without actionable solutions. He expressed a desire for a more hands-on approach in therapy, where therapists would provide specific strategies to try rather than just discussing issues. This perspective reflects the need for personalized and practical therapeutic approaches that cater to individual preferences and needs. Sam shared personal anecdotes about dealing with judgment and societal expectations, both from his experiences and those of others on the autism spectrum. He emphasized that support should be tailored to individual needs rather than applying broad generalizations. He discussed how societal expectations can sometimes clash with the unique needs and abilities of individuals with autism. He highlighted the importance of setting realistic expectations while still providing support and understanding. The interview also covered the importance of self-acceptance and the role of self-help in the healing process. Sam conveyed that true change begins with a personal decision to embrace oneself and seek help. He stressed that while therapy and external support are valuable, individuals must first be willing to make decisions and take action toward their own growth and healing. Sam shared his plans for the future, including a speakers' retreat and participation in the Squared Circle Expo, a wrestling convention where he will also be a vendor. His enthusiasm for these events reflects his commitment to blending his passions with his advocacy work. Overall, the conversation underscored the need for a more inclusive understanding of autism and mental health, challenging stereotypes and promoting personal growth. Sam Mitchell's insights and experiences provided a valuable perspective on embracing who you are and fostering a supportive environment for all individuals. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mommafoxfire/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mommafoxfire/support

Join me as I talk about how game shows helped me when I was young. I also talk about how game show formats helped me feel comfortable. Additionally, I discuss how game shows might assist those with autism in learning to adapt to modifications in their daily lives.  I even go into why I would be both a great and terrible game show host. The main event consists of my analogies between autism and the production of a game show, its host, including the actual game show itself. https://www.gsn.com/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qa0fg2c7K5A  

Along with his NonProfit, Sam is a 19-year- old young man who is in college, majoring in media and entrepreneurship. He found his niche and love in podcasting in high school when he joined his high school's media club. Podcasting became his passion and he started his own, Autism Rocks and Rolls. What started out as a hobby soon got the world's attention. Sam now wants to change the perspective of autism, destigmatizing the negativity that often surrounds this type of brain wiring. Sam is using his platform to first and foremost, help those on the spectrum or anyone that feels as though they do not belong because they simply feel "different." Sam wants to reach parents who might be terrified because their child was diagnosed with autism, someone on the spectrum that feels lost, a business owner that wants to bring motivation to his or her company, teachers that want to understand the emotional side of autism for their students, and anyone that needs something to feel good about themselves. Sam tells his story through motivational speaking.Thank you to BetterHelp for sponsoring this episode. BetterHelp is the world's largest therapy service, and it's 100% online.

When people find out that Gina Mitchell's son, Sam, is autistic, they often say, ‘I'm so sorry about that.'   And that bothers Gina. Yes, having a neurodivergent child is challenging. But Sam is not broken, and his differences are nothing to be ‘sorry' about. So, when Sam's podcast started to gain attention, Gina saw an opportunity to help people understand what autism is—and what it isn't. Gina is a career educator and President of Autism Rocks and Rolls, a 501(c)(3) dedicated to breaking the stigma around people with autism. She does autism advocacy work and speaking engagements with Sam, who serves as Executive Director of ARAR. On this episode of Wickedly Smart Women, Gina joins Anjel to explain how Sam was diagnosed with autism and why she knew he could succeed, given the right accommodations. Gina challenges parents to advocate for their neurodivergent children at school—and teach their kids to advocate for themselves. Listen in to understand how Sam's podcast evolved from hobby to advocacy organization and learn how Gina is changing the negative connotations around the fixations of neurodivergent kids. What You Will Learn  The traumatic birth of Gina's son Sam and how he was diagnosed with autism Why it's crucial to be an advocate for your neurodivergent child at school How Gina knew Sam could be successful given the right accommodations The laws around following a student's IEP in the public school system Why Gina suggests teaching your neurodivergent child to advocate for themselves What inspired Gina to start a nonprofit with Sam as Executive Director How Autism Rocks and Rolls helps people understand what autism is (and what it isn't) The evolution of Sam's podcast from hobby to advocacy organization How to change the negative connotations re: the fixations of neurodivergent kids Connect with Gina Mitchell Autism Rocks and Rolls Autism Rocks and Rolls Podcast  Resources Flutie Foundation Dr. Temple Grandin Family and Social Services Administration Wickedly Smart Women: Trusting Intuition, Taking Action, Transforming Worlds by Anjel B.

Louis Marinucci is now my most intriguing visitor; he is a man who, to use a metaphor, "lives under the sea." Mr. Marinucci, who is autistic, takes part in aquatic therapy because he enjoys scuba diving and investigating the underwater world.

He is also a spokesperson for Diveheart, an organization that teaches kids with disabilities how to take part in diving therapy and other water activities.
