Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a complex developmental condition that involves persistent challenges in social interaction, speech and nonverbal communication, and restricted/repetitive behaviors. The effects of ASD and the severity of symptoms are different in each person.
In this episode, I chat with Deniece Campos Landry about what ASD is and how she and her family have found ways around the challenges that come with ASD. Deniece is a mother of an individual with ASD and the founder of Global Panda, a job search portal database for Disabled college graduates that are entering the workforce. She has been working with people with ASD for over a decade and is active in her community in helping people learn more about autism.

The Mighty Myelin Sheath
In this mini episode, Hillary nerds out about the anatomy of the myelin sheath. The myelin sheath is the protective, fatty coating surrounding your nerve fibers along the axon, similar to the protective covering around electrical wires.
