Autism Awareness
Welcome to Variable Podcast, where we celebrate Learner Variability. April used to be known as Autism Awareness Month, but today, it’s all about Autism Acceptance. Why? Because awareness is just the first step—true inclusion happens when we move beyond knowing and start accepting, respecting, and celebrating each other’s differences.
Every brain works differently, and that’s a good thing! This is called learner variability—the idea that no two people think, learn, or experience the world in exactly the same way. Autism is just one example of the amazing ways our minds can work, and when we understand and embrace these differences, we create a stronger, more inclusive community.
