Hey guys, welcome to Adulting with Autism, the podcast where we dive into the rollercoaster of adulthood through a neurodiverse lens. I'm April Ratchford, your friendly occupational therapist mom, proudly on the spectrum and raising an amazing young adult son with autism. Join us as we share stories, tips, and laughs, offering a supportive space for anyone navigating life's twists and turns. Grab your drink of choice, no judgment, and let's embark on this journey together. This is Adulting with Autism.

Happy Saturday, friends! I'm so excited to share today's episode, especially since I'm about to head off on a much-needed vacation to Chicago. But before I go, let's dive into a fascinating conversation with Jim Fuller, author of "The Art of Conscious Communication for Thoughtful Men." Jem's journey from corporate leader to mindfulness guru is nothing short of inspiring.

We talk about everything from the importance of being authentic and vulnerable to how mindfulness can transform your communication skills. Jem's insights are like a breath of fresh air, and his stories—from being a barefoot backpacker to a fire dancer—are sure to captivate you.

And guess what? Jem is generously offering our listeners free access to his Introduction to Mindfulness course! Just head to his website, jemfuller.com, find the meditation course, and use the coupon code "podcast" at checkout.
