In this episode, I talk about the feeling of not just burnout when you get exhausted with a hobby but autistic burnout. The basic definition is that those who have autism are burnt out as they feel like they are missing out on basic life skills such as cooking and driving. However, I am here to spread some courage and inspiration because while they might miss those chances, aspies can show vindication by having advanced skills that do not come easily to others. Take a listen to a truthful and appealing Autism Rocks and Rolls episode.

Despite all of this, she is one successful and funny woman. So I encourage you to tune in to hear Judy's wise words and jokes.

On this episode, we talk to Miyah Sundermeyer. I was on her podcast called "Hello With World With Miyah Sundermeyer" and I believe that I should return the favor. However, I did not only want her to return the favor. I also wanted her on Autism Rocks and Rolls because she, like me, is autistic and is friends with Temple Grandin. Mrs. Sundermeyer is also a leader because she works with the Autism Plan in Georgia. Let's hear Miyah's wisdom and story on Autism Rocks and Rolls together.

Join me as we learn about how people on the autism spectrum make their mark with their blueprint. A clue is that we tap into their skills and allow autistic people to practice them every day. This has resonated with your host because he has been what society calls "obsessed" about certain concepts, and in this episode, everyone will also learn how to join them in the concept but also cope with our obsessing for our sanity.

In this episode, we take a different turn on Autism Rocks and Rolls because we meet Sonny Von Cleveland, who has so much respect for the disability community. However, he also has a story because, from the age of 5 to 10, he was sexually assaulted by four men. There is more because he also served 18 years in prison, but after meeting a man while in solitary confinement, he changed his ways by having a wife, starting a YouTube channel, being a motivational speaker, starting a cat café called Frisky Business, and being an ambassador for Boo2Bullying. Let's listen to this example of how someone can change their way of life.
