Discover what’s possible when you let the creative juices flow. 

Have you ever experienced a flow state when using music or visual arts as a creative outlet? Or maybe you’ve been inspired by someone else’s work?

If you like music and art, stick around, because today’s episode is a roundtable discussion where we talk about all things creativity, facilitated by community moderator Danielle Terrell, and featuring Autistic Self-Advocates Andrew Bennett, Stephanie De Kremer, and Christina Kaspersen, as wells as fellow members of our online Global Autism Community, Melissa Badertscher and Tj Larum. 

Among other things, we discuss: 

  • How creative projects can enrich lives
  • Different outlets for creativity
  • Interpretation vs improvisation
  • Using creativity to accentuate autistic strengths and develop areas of need
  • Challenges of self-promotion
  • How to overcome imposter syndrome when showcasing work in front of others
  • Would you like to share your own perspectives by participating in roundtables like the this one? Join our online Global Autism Community, a safe and judgment-free space where all kinds of people connected to autism regularly discuss important topics like autistic identity, dating on the spectrum, coping strategies, and many, many more. 

    Let’s work together to transform how the world relates to autism.
