Synopsis

Beloved star of ABC TV's award-winning Love on the Spectrum and disability rights advocate Jodi Rodgers shares stories from her three-decade career working with the autistic community and calls for a more inclusive and accepting society where we are more empathetic and curious about all the relationships in our lives.

Jodi explores the powerful impact of embracing neurodiversity and forming meaningful connections with those around us. Each chapter highlights a different story and an aspect of human behaviour, including:

- How we perceive the world, and our own unique experience of thinking, sensing and feeling

- How we communicate our perspective to others, understand one another and express ourselves, and

- How we can better connect with one another

With dozens of moving stories, Jodi's book will give readers a deeper understanding of and appreciation for the neurodiverse community around them. Above all, it will inspire a profound sense of belonging, revealing that we're much more similar than we think and that all of our differences are worth celebrating.
