Some day temple will be recognized as one of the greatest women to ever have lived , for her contributions to society , an amazing human being
Omg GUYS. He’s interviewing THE FRIKKIN QUEEN!🤩
🙌😻
That was my reaction when seeing this video too!
🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Thank you so much for this 😁👍
Really great interview. Had lightbulbs going off for me throughout
You both did extremely well in NOT talking over one another. Excellent interview.
She spoke in my town at an autism conference 6 years ago and she did a meet and greet afterwards in the lobby. I have an actual picture with her! She is amazing and it was great to see her speak when I did because my son was in the middle of the evaluation process.
Lucky!
Taking those classes out of schools also made us all SOOOOO dependent on other sources for our needs. Clothing, cooking, growing fruit and vegetables for example. ☀️
High school needs to turn out trades that can employ immediately no need for second schooling teach them how because we need them.
In Australia we had Technical High Schools.
My grandson is autistic you have inspired us all
God bless and protect Temple Grandin🙏
Thank you for sharing your knowledge❤
I love her! She's this kind of boomer person but without the negative self-centered attitude, only the nice elements of it.
She is so amazing. You are so lucky to be able to chat with her.
Dr. Grandon's book "Thinking in Pictures" changed my life. My psychiatrist had been pushing me to read "Aspergirls" which I refused to read, because the title was an abuse of language. He referred me to a local autism specialist, who recommended that I read Dr. Grandon's book instead, and gave me my assessment and diagnosis. I was 40 at the time. With ASD as a diagnosis, my entire life is now put into context. I don't actually know what form of thinker I am - pictures are part of it, but as a musician who was always terrible at math until I studied geometry, and still put my poor physics teacher in the position of having the first student to understand the concept he was describing have no idea how the math related to it... I ended up going to school to become a piano technician, because I love pianos and moving parts in general - I can't run a business, and I have a terrible time choosing what to do first when repairing and regulating pianos, which are my favorite sectors of piano work (I like tuning, but though I wear special earplugs, the auditory stimulation gives me trouble).
I know exactly what you're talking about. I was a musician when i was growing up, and many years into adulthood. I can't do algebra. I love figuring out math that comes into a project naturally rather than presented as part of instructions.
When I was in orchestra in middle, my teachers would make us learn the all the parts of sheet music and I was terrible at it. I could read the notes just fine, but don't ask me how to do the math 2/4 time and 4/4 time etc. I Never was able to understand it. I can feel the music, read the notes and the punctuation, feel the correct beat, but the words and numbers aren't there.
I need to read Thinking in Pictures too.
Ah yes, the paradox of understanding the concept well but the actual maths just not computing. Always loved science but struggled with the maths. When I did nursing I had to get a second attempt with extra time to complete the medication calculations exam. I honestly think if they still did that thing where there used to go through the times tables by rote, it would have helped me a lot.
I've had moments where I say "I'm autistic, I'm supposed to be good at maths" out of frustration... Especially since I still obsess over numbers, particularly with money!
@@agrotta1650 did you ever have the teacher point at a note and "ask what note is this? " And you could play the note but to actually say what the note was you had to really think? That was my experience a lot haha
@@shanemorris3554 I hate numbers, and especially money - it's part of what makes me need more assistance, even with the high IQ and great verbal talents - I cannot handle the real world. The only thing in geometry that didn't make sense to me was proofs - they were all 3 equally obvious. I never got all of my multiplication tables down, and it was required when I was in school - the dyslexia diagnosis was helpful with that. I can sight read 4 clefs in music, and barely sight sing or play because I rotate notes and rhythms separately, horizontally and vertically. Conducting wasn't in the cards, either.
I read Aspergirls and it helped me with some of the more awkward aspects of growing up and issues around relating with others. Maybe the title is politically incorrect but the content is helpful for girls and women who were more conditioned to fit into what's girly or womanly.
What a privilege to have Temple Grandin on the show. Thank you to you both!
WOW! Can't believe this. I have been wanting to see Temple Grandin since I first heard of her years ago and still haven't. Thank you Dan and Temple for doing this. It's good to see and hear you Temple even if it's not in person. Maybe someday.
This is so amazing. I'm in tears, so excited, so chuffed for you being able to talk to Temple Grandin herself.
This is wonderful!!! My dad, brothers and son are all clearly on the spectrum. I'm beginning to suspect that I might be too...and I'm almost 50! I love Temple Grandin!
Fantastic to see you two talking together! You’re a great conversational match and really understand each other. Usually Dr. Grandin is speaking to non autistic people in videos we see with her.
This is going to be an amazing conversation. How cool.
Thank you!!
My daughter is autistic and I can’t wait for this!! ♥️🙏🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
This was a great interview.
She made an excellent point, which I think your facial expressions during and afterwards showed that it really hit home (in a good way!), about the subject of autism taking over everything else and becoming all-consuming. I mean, your channel is "The Aspie World". From a branding, searchability and focus point of view that is extremely useful, but from a Daniel point of view ... it could become very limiting.
Listening to Temple over the years, I don't think I've ever not had some kind of epiphany from what she has to say.
For example - With your combined knowledge from university, UA-cam creation and marketing, and about the autism spectrum, I'm sure that you could create some kick-ass chemistry educational resources that worked effectively for everyone.
Coming in late! My daughter who I'm supporting tells me mum your live on the aspie world... Eck panic! Then ooooo how does a carburetor work??! And oh my can anyone see the vibes tou guys are sharing!! Oh my I'm not alone!
Sigh ! You guys this is ab awesome amount of sharing and it brings knowledge and calm and inspiration to me, thank you 😊 🙏 ☺ ❤
I am newly diagnosed on the Autism Spectrum and Dr. Grandin is one of my heroes. ✨💖✨ 🧩 🐮 🧑🏫
BY FAR the best guest!! When Temple described differences I immediately resonated with her description of Visual Spatial thinker! We need lists, we need patterns to connect things for an overall perspective and we definitely need pictures.
The first time meeting a friend's family, I could not process the verbal explanation of the relations between everyone. Made them draw a chart like a family tree so I could SEE who fit where. Still very stressful event as the only new person. If so done gives me driving directions I can only remember 2 or 3 items.
Thank you Temple for speaking about your early years and relating to your learning processes as well. I am an early childhood educator, and I look to thoroughly help all the children in my class.
I kinda agree with video game addiction but if they are addicted getting a job in that category is so helpful. I got into college for game art and design. I was making all As and Bs until math and essays came around. Every class I was great at! I failed halfway through college because I failed those 2 classes. I got through a year of 2 years. I still feel bad I never got my degree. It would been so great for me. As a kid I made animated stories and mini games through some the programs we had. Nowadays I hardly play games or even use technology except for videos because I get sad I didn't get as far as I wanted. I wanted to become a designer in one of my games Second Life because I could make real money but I got disappointed because I get really distracted too fast because of my ADHD and lately being pregnant has made it so hard.
Yeah I’ve spent a lifetime with executive function issues because I’m on the spectrum and if I could give advice to anyone on the spectrum it would be to find a job that correlates with your special interests..monetize them.I literally can’t hold a regular job
@@da1onlynickvicious I feel this so much! I am almost 27 and starting to feel I don't know what job is for me. It is really hard to find too.
I'm teaching myself skills for game dev. When I was a kid, there wasn't any tools you could really use to make games at all. The closest thing I have to what I do today was Mario Paint and that game was my jam. I remade all of The Lion King using it. This was prior to when it came out on VHS, so back then it would take about 9-12 months for a VHS to come out after the movie screened in the theater.
There's so much free software now and different ways to make games depending on your learning style. Since I'm more of a visual, bottom-up thinker (literally just like Temple Grandin), I'm not very good at code. But I do web design and development as my job (started as a hobby). But by using Javascript, or visual scripting tools tools in Unity, Godot, or even getting some game engines like RPG Maker on sale, messing with Blender, there are no limitations but your time, willingness to learn, and creativity. It's super-rewarding to create something from nothing.
Part of what I love most is problem solving and finding different ways to solve an issue and make things efficient. I'm also learning new software and learning that I probably have an innate musical talent that I've never really tapped into. I've learned that I just think and go about things differently, so the rules that are out there don't always apply.
On the other hand, playing them isn't bad. You do have to be exposed to many different kinds of games to understand game design. But it shouldn't keep you from getting a job or having a life. I'll be the first one to admit that I will binge play a good game. During the worst parts of the pandemic, I lived on Animal Crossing, and I'm about to again come the 2.0 update. But I still have to pull myself away for work. If it weren't for my hyperfocus on JRPGs, I may not have met all the amazing people in my life, ended up in my current career, or connected to my husband the way I did. So it always rubs me the wrong way when people say games are a waste of time. It's no different than consuming other types of media (movies, TV, books), but it shouldn't be all you do.
@@tehrinny7031 It is only a problem if it is causing you problems.
An addictions therapist once said that an addiction is something you keep doing despite negative consequences. So anything can be an addiction.
If video games overall have helped you they are not an addiction.
Second Life was such an amazing world. A haven for autists and other neurodivergents and way ahead of its time in terms of graphics and virtual experience. I too have creative interests but have had a difficult time bringing them to fruition.
Your job example here!!!! Speak those truths 🥰
You should have her on again. I really loved this
Thank you so much for this interview. Temple Grandin is my hero. Great conversation.
Navigating Autism 🥰 thank you Dr Grandin 🙏💜♥️🎶🎶
Loving this conversation! Thank you Dan and Temple Grandin!
I really appreciate this content! I can relate to this way too much. Kung fu is my burst exercise mode! Having trained as an instructor of Kung Fu and Tai Chi, I would recommend Kung Fu highly if you want to burn a lot of energy quickly, and Tai Chi if you want to have a lighter exercise that can help teach principles of focus and breathing awareness/control. Having done such focused training really helps to this day, as I'm not an active teacher at the moment, but I still have the knowledge base to rely on.
Being the type that likes to analyze martial arts in detail and having a hard time not sharing what I learned with my fellow students, my instructor invited me to train to be an instructor myself. The main reason I'm not actively trying to make that my career is the social anxiety. I still have trouble with that, and I don't really to put myself out there. I've practiced mixed martial arts for 30 years and only very recently figured out why I haven't been able to push myself to make more of it. ASD... sigh.
Holy WOW you got Temple Grandin!
I cannot get enough of Temple. She is so inspirational ❤ I am 58 year old female. I have spent 3p years being an entrepreneur conceptualizing, designing and engineering equipment that saves the lives of police, firefighters and military, or those really big problems that kill people at work. I wish I could meet Temple. I am not nearly as connected as I should be because I have that socially awkward part that hampers. However, it has never held me back. It has been a hard road because I never understood how to market my work effectively. That doesn't mean I have not been successful, it just means I care little about money. I just care about the challenge, the learning and the result. I have a special permit (SP- 13250) for the production and sales of the world's only medical oxygen cylinder that does not explode when impacted by a projectile (bullet). It is in any USAF aircraft where we need to move injured soldiers from War zones to Ramstein or other hospitals. I am proud of that, but it is easy for people like me to be removed from the money because we are usually not focused on that part. I appreciate her work and yours by providing this information. It is so helpful
About skin, tooth, joints issues in autistic people. You must check conjunctive tissue disorder, and in particular hsd and eds, more and more studies seems proove important comorbidity between them.
I just can’t get enough of Dr Grandin and her insight into her interpretation of the world. I’ve been navigating a very lonely road with my two girls (the three of us are autistic, so you can imagine how interesting this has been at times!😂🥴🤷🏼♀️🥰). An infinite amount of ‘thank you!’s to the interviewer and Dr Grandin. Sending y’all the best from Texas ❤️🙏🏻👋🏻🥰💃🏻
Yep, yep, yep....my hubs and I didn't realize we were on the spectrum until our son was diagnosed! Wonderful you got to interview Temple, great interview.
Temple is amazing! She is so spot on. I love the way she views things.
She is awesome. I haven’t read her book but will see if it is in the talking book library. I always was dreadful at math but languages and most other things were easier. No one ever bullied me in high school, but before that… all the time. I was just the weird girl that could go on for hours about books or anime or gaming. Lol I sucked at social things, but have a few friends who are accepting of me and will help me in social situations to get through them. I have been very lucky to have their support and friendship. Sensory issues are still annoying but I think the hardest part of it all is trying to not get so lost in my interests that I don’t take care of what’s needing it. Social things are difficult but I live in the middle of nowhere so I don’t encounter them as much.
My friends from band camp every summer in high school and choir during college are the main folks from my younger years that I still talk to. I think that matters so much to have those connections around interests!
Thank You so much! This is awesome. As an undiagnosed autistic individual this is nice to listen to and helpful.
I was diagnosed very late in life, it explained so many things, at first I felt what if I’d been diagnosed earlier in life and yes it would have been nice to know why. But I’m glad in a way I didn’t, because I was forced to push through my difficulties. Yes it took its toll on my mental health and physical health, but over all I think I did more undiagnosed than if I’d been diagnose, I went to collage, I worked with special needs, yes I really struggled. But if I’d been diagnosed would they have allowed me to do those things. Would I have been told I couldn’t do that? Interesting, yes diagnose early, but don’t limit the child I agree with Temple.
I am also glad I wasn't diagnosed as a kid. I was forced to learn social skills because I realized that if I didn't I would be totally alone. It was all up to me. So I tried to succeed socially, though I was very bad at it, and through all that effort I did learn a lot of social skills. I can now "pass" in most situations without much trouble. Figuring out I was autistic, much later, has helped me understand a lot of other problems I have, but regular social interactions, including small talk, are not a problem. My main social problems now are oversharing and "crazy enthusiasm" when I get onto my special interests. I don't care a whole lot about making social mistakes, except that I do lose friends pretty regularly, and almost never have any idea what I said or did that caused that to happen. I think that is the part of autism that I definitely consider a "disability."
The meds relax the muscles. Hence, slowing down the digestive system. My husband had stomach and allergy problems… he took Mastic Gum. Nervousness and restless sleep, gone. Runny nose… gone! The bugs in the gut were his problem. Heavy metals can cause cognitive and digestive problems as well. I know we are all very different no matter what, and special in our own ways, but I’m thankful for his healing.
Absolutely love this woman. My son just got diagnosed and she has helped me focus on how to help and stretch his abilities instead of feeling sorry for my son and myself as a single mother of four kids. We need to get educated..
My favorite video! So much advice that I can take into consideration for my 5 year old autistic son's present and future. Thank you both so much for helping me to try to understand the world through my son's eyes. It helps more than you can possibly imagine. It gives me hope, and some peace of mind. An invaluable gift.
I can relate to this. Thank you for giving me hope.🥰. Some days are harder than others.
I have to exercise to sleep too. 30 min. It really helps.
Awesome. I enjoyed this.
Temple Grandin is the same age as my parents!!!
Amazingly done interview!!!!!!!!👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🤩🙏🏼 ty!!!!! I’m autistic and so is my daughter ty for this 💕👍🏼
Friends through shared interests!! When I was a kid, I’d only make friends with kids that has the same interests in dogs that I did.
There’s a HUGE relief when finally diagnosed because exactly how Temple described it “explains their relationship on problems”.
Friends through shared interests 🥰🙏 that is HUGE 🥰♥️💜🎶🎶🎶
CHOICES 🥰🥰🥰
It's important for any romantic partner too.
Love the hair Dan.
Great interview! A little abrupt ending, but many things Temple said resonated with me!
Very excellent conversation !
We need more interviews of people in UK who studied autism and gone through lot of things.
Temple is intelligent and not same aspie as rest of u guys.
She doesn't know her IQ so we don't know that. To her benefit she did have good parents and early intervention even at a time when people thought girls can't have Asperger's, and she was encouraged to try different activities that helped her brain and find out what she likes and dislikes and what she is good at.
Im an RBT. Watching her is soooo helpful
It just opened my eyes to so much and I understand even more 😁 I will be buying her books xx
Beautiful interview. Bless both of you for leading our education.
That was fascinating!! Thank you!!
Did you feel honored? 😍😊
What a great interview
There was a great movie about her. Claire Danes (from "Homeland") plays Temple.
Just got diagnosed at 57 years old. I also have ADHD. I definitely think in pictures, and I am going to read her book about thinking in pictures, but I played 5 different instruments by the time I was 12 years old. I suck at arithmetic, but oddly enough I am fantastic at geometry and love physics, and have deep dove into cellular biology, and things of that nature. I barely graduated High school, but it took me 3 years to graduate with a full AA and BA with a 4.0 from college. I frustrate my doctors because I read medical studies, and often point them to the studies that really count as I don't want to hear about a survey-based study. I will only talk to you about double-blind randomized studies that are large in nature. So, I think in pictures, but I have that spacial aspect to my thoughts.
It was a huge relief to get a diagnosis and figure out why I didn't fit in, and why I would get so frustrated. Why I couldn't keep jobs, and only liked working for myself. Why I would blow up at work and walk out. The only jobs I managed to keep were jobs that I worked by myself and away from other people or from home.
As I listened to this, I realized why I was the queen of Art classes, and even drama classes. This is such an interesting journey, but if you are wondering if you are on the spectrum find a psychologist that specializes in autism. It will help you immensely learn how to live a more effective life.
On the medication issue, they seem to have it backwards. They drug up the kids who should be learning coping skills, and tell adults to learn coping skills when they've already tried everything and the medications would help implement those skills.
@Toby Mcguire Not all meds are made for NT's. Obviously ADD meds are made for Neurodivergents.
Best interview u done. Loved dr grandin.
OMG thank you interview her. I have been a fan of hers for over a decade now.
She makes sense to me
Glad you got it set up
I'm aspie and I dont speak well. I mean the words never come properly. So I am better writing than speaking. I would love to speak like you, fast and organized. 🙁
Sounds so familiar.
So great to see you two together. Loved it! My son has ASD and I'm always looking for ways to help him grow. Part of what I don't hear much is being held back with fear and anxiety.
Almost to the end and as soon as I sent my comment you started talking about anxiety. Thank you
Speechless!
Wonderful talk. I’ve been on meds to get on top of crippling anxiety, finally found one that hits the mark.
Wonderful interview! You two have amazing chemistry and report. I could see you two doing a regular UA-cam podcast together, which would be gold! =)
This was really fascinating. Thank you.
Maths, music, chemistry. We see patterns in things. I see things spacially, not visually, though, I would say there is a difference.
I completely agree. In the 1980s my mother taught vocational classes for people that are going to do hands on things. Now most of these are gone. I was a math teacher and had to force students that would probably never use algebra 2 to do it. It was extremely frustrating. Not everyone wants to go to college. Also, the EOC has hampered students ability to learn things on their own. Can you guess where that is the primary way of learning? College....that's why many students do not do well in college. Common core has the draw back on the teacher shouldering the tremendous burden of drilling students repetitively in the classroom so that when they are left on their own they have no idea what to do. We need more options in general.
I have been taking one med. for depression and it has been a life changer. I asked how long I would need to be on it, and was told, maybe the rest of my life. So, ok…so be it. If that’s what it takes to function…
This Is amazing🥰
I really relate to the frustration associated with communication difficulties. My earliest memory (and I am 75) is of not being able to read aloud in first grade. I felt it should be easy, but it was just not there; it was like trying to walk when your feet are stuck in mud. It was like my nervous system was not fully connected to my voice-box. So I was sending out a signal to say something, and it just wasn't reaching its destination.
What an amazing interview, thank you Dan. I filled up a few times, Temple is the best
You give me hope, Temple!
I appreciate you speaking high mg medications. I’m grateful you had this Good Interview💛☮️Thank you both,
🔥 Love this! 🧎
I do believe I have Asperger tendencies... I'm 58 now, but my whole life I've been the odd man out, super anxious, and have a great love of art and music...
I love photography too, and see potential photos around me in the form of paintings, which I always thought was weird... I see things usually in nature and in my head it's a painting...
I understand now why I've always been different, and my youngest who is 21 now, is also Aspie
Customized interventions suited to each child’s needs is very effective.
I have a biochemistry degree, but I started with graphic design before I changed.
I just looked up Temple Grandin in Wikipedia and my mother is 22 days older than Temple Grandin. My mother was born on August 7, 1947 and Temple Grandin was born on August 29, 1947!!!
Absolutely relate . Everything is visual for me .
I enjoyed this interview so much! It has been so very helpful for me to hear this! Thank you both!
Can't wait!
I remember I was often angry at my mother because she didn't let me do anything on my own.
Check for epilepsy 😭😭😭😭 PLEASEEE !!!! And IBS 😭😭😭😭
This is so interesting! I have abilities in music and I'm a visualizer. With music though, it's a tactical memory. What's strange is that I'm terrible with math, but I have a great memory of number sequences. This interview is so educational. Thank you both for this experience!
What do you mean?
Wow so cool!
I also have Epilepsy, ADD, OCD, IBS and some other apparent (possibly very wrong) diagnoses that I contend with.
Wonderful, thank you!
Love it love your show a fan of both of you
🔥🔥🔥❤️🙌🏼
Thank you for sharing your knowledge!!
Love this Lady!
I have issues with sleep and I use melatonin along with a pot of camomile tea with honey and almond milk. Than I sleep like a baby for about 10 hours!!!
I am flatfooted and have trouble running but I do like to walk!!!
The mediator is the message😊
