Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) affects over 62 million people globally and that number could actually be much higher as more and more science and awareness campaigns are launched. On our second episode, we had featured Mindy Harlan (wife of host Dr Mitch) to discuss her firsthand account of raising a child, her son Eric, who has ASD. 

Eric is now a 20-year-old man, and a world-class percussionist with the famed Blue Knights Percussion Ensemble. He shares with us what it was like growing up with ASD and the challenges he faced. But more importantly, he shares how ASD went from a disorder in his life to an incredible ability!
