In the final episode of season 4, Callie and David talk with Jeremy and Ilana from mybestsociallife.com. Whether you are on the spectrum, consider yourself neurodivergent, or know someone who is, this episode is for you! We talk about:
- Jeremy and Illana's career transitions from law and special-ed to helping people on the spectrum find community, make friends, start dating, and find love
- How Jeremy became the "Hitch" for people on the autism spectrum, as mentioned in The Atlantic
- Why dating is so difficult for neurodivergent people and how to get help
- Along with lessons we can all learn from the neurodivergent community (and their parents) about succeeding in relationships.

Their flagship program is called Social Life 360, and it's like nothing else in the autism and neurodivergent world: It combines a warm and inclusive community, private and group coaching, and confidence and social skills building that uses formulas, diagrams, and step-by-step processes which allow a differently wired brain to observe, understand, and engage with the social world.
