"Reason To Believe" is a platform that celebrates the diverse voices of neurodivergent individuals, emphasizing their unique perspectives & experiences. This initiative shines a spotlight on the creativity & talents of everyday individuals who are not only neurodivergent but also contribute significantly to various creative-minded fields. We will also showcase storytelling through thriving educators, filmmakers, musicians, authors, chefs, & more. By sharing their stories & artistic expressions, "Reason To Believe" aims to foster understanding & appreciation for the rich contributions that these individuals make to society, encouraging a broader recognition of the value of neurodiversity in the creative landscape
Produced & hosted by Brian Quain, a passionate ally & educator with a recent autism diagnosis, our podcast aims to normalize conversations around neurological differences using humor, storytelling, & insightful interviews. We believe that sharing these powerful narratives can inspire those on the spectrum who may be struggling with confidence or feeling the need to mask their true selves in various situations—be it at work, at school, with friends, or with family.
