Exploring Life. Celebrating Difference.
Hello and welcome to Autie Talk. Nice to meet you.
I am Louise Croombs, a broadcaster and speaker that always knew she was different. I find some of the simplest things in life hard so I spent time doing the more difficult things like speaking to large groups of people. Both my family and I are on the autistic spectrum. This website and podcast contain the view from where we are. Just a normal family with some special challenges.
I created Autie Talk as a celebration of difference though honesty and humour, driven by a desire to be accepted.
