Autistic Adulthood: 10 Lessons That Challenge What We Think We Know

What do autistic young adults really need to build healthy, meaningful, self-directed lives?

Is it getting a job, moving out, and doing everything independently? Or are we missing something much bigger?

In this episode, Lynn Davison shares 10 important lessons from The Transmitter podcast series, When Autistic Kids Grow Up, hosted by Brady Huggett and Dr. Tempest McDonald.

These lessons challenge some of our assumptions about autism, independence, and what it means to thrive in adulthood.

The goal isn't to do everything alone. It's to build a life that works for you, with the support, confidence, and freedom to make meaningful choices.
