Today, I'm thrilled to share this blog post and our latest podcast episode featuring the inspiring Sam Mitchell from Autism Rocks and Rolls. In our conversation, we dive into deep and meaningful topics like bullying, empathy, and the impact of Sam's journey as a podcaster.
Sam shared his insights on how people eventually realize what truly matters. He said, "I feel sorry for them. Yeah. You guys, I feel bad when it hits them when they... I don't have the beautiful girl anymore... I don't have the looks anymore. Or you know what? I don't have the muscles anymore." Our discussion highlights the importance of empathy and understanding, especially when dealing with challenging situations in life.
In the podcast, you'll also learn about some of the incredible guests Sam has had on Autism Rocks and Rolls. When asked about eye-opening conversations, Sam mentioned Dr. Temple Grandin, "Temple is one of 'em because of her brain, how she operates." He also shared his admiration for Rich Beddoe, the former drummer for Finger 11, saying, "He's just phenomenal. You listen to him; he could hook you in."
During our chat, I shared a personal story about my experiences with bullying and the power of standing up for others. I discussed a time when I stepped in to help someone who was being picked on, demonstrating the importance of standing up for what's right and showing compassion toward others.
This conversation with Sam Mitchell is an absolute must-listen, filled with heart, inspiration, and the kind of flair you've come to expect from our podcast. Don't miss this opportunity to gain valuable insights and learn from the experiences of Sam and myself as we explore the world of empathy and understanding in the face of adversity.
