Today’s guest is an absolute force of positivity and a trailblazer in the podcasting world—Sam Mitchell, the creator and host of the hit podcast Autism Rocks and Rolls. Sam, who proudly identifies as a high-functioning individual on the autism spectrum, has built a thriving platform with over 21,000 downloads and some of the biggest names in sports, music, and advocacy joining his show. His guest list is stacked: Armani Williams, the first openly autistic NASCAR driver, American Idol rocker James Durbin, and even WWE legend Mick Foley. One of Sam’s most impactful conversations was with the iconic Dr. Temple Grandin, a global leader in autism advocacy. And Sam’s not slowing down—more big names are on the way. But Sam’s mission goes far beyond impressive interviews. He’s a motivational speaker, entrepreneur, award-winning podcast host, TEDx speaker, writer, and autism advocate who’s building a movement. His nonprofit and podcast are all about proving that autism is not a limitation, that success looks different for everyone, and that "normal" is a myth. From being a top 10 finalist in the People's Choice Podcast Awards, to winning a Davey Award, to being ranked in the top 200 podcasts in Canada, Sam is making waves, changing narratives, and spreading a message of acceptance and self-celebration. Sam is here today to share his journey, his powerful message, and his passion for breaking stereotypes about autism and mental health. Please join me in welcoming Sam Mitchell to the show!
