Doom to Bloom Podcast - I AM...CHELSEA THE GOLDEN RETRIEVER!
On December 1, 2023, I had the honor of sitting down with Jaclyn Gee and I shared my story of growing up as one of four siblings with autism. I share my experiences of growing up as an autistic child as well as the experiences of my siblings. I discuss the struggles my mother endured while raising four autistic children. I tied that into my greatest achievement, which is only beginning with Chelsea's New Beginning and how she will touch the lives of autistic people in the upcoming books in this children's series.

Daniel Keith Austin Interviews With Starfish Social Club
On August 17, 2023, I had the honor of sitting down with Steph West, the Neurodivergent Social Coach of her podcast Starfish Social Club.
As an autistic author, I discussed ways I needed support in order to achieve my goals in my journey and how parents can support their children who have mental disabilities and their dreams/goals.
Research shows that kids who are struggling only need ONE supportive adult in their life to help them be successful. Just one. In this week's episode, Steph and I are sharing strategies to help us all be that one adult for our kids!
Here's a clip from the episode:
(Steph) One of the things that... that I believe, is that I think everybody should and has the capacity to dream and have whatever goals they want for themselves. Right. I think for some of us, it may take us longer to get there, and we may need more support along the way. But I don't think that the dream or the goal needs to be any different than it would be for anybody else. It just may take us longer, and we may need more help to get there.
(Daniel) Right. And that's often why so many people give up is because it's taking a really long time. And that's something I want to offer as encouraging advice to people who are listening to this, who are in that boat, like, just keep going at it. Someone important to me told me to never ever settle, and that's what I'm not going to do is I'm never going to settle. It is, I will admit, taking a lot longer for me to achieve the dreams. I envisioned having them a much longer time ago. And if I had it my way, I'd be enjoying it right now. But I'm just going to keep going at it no matter how frustrating it is.
