s2:e25 - love is love is love

Today on HTDL is all about new media that has launched this week and brought a spark of joy!

Taylor Swift put out a new album. You can hear Chryssy and Fan Club President Kylene perform the opening track over on the How to Do Life Facebook and Instagram pages. Chryssy became a big Taylor fan several years ago and challenges a listen through of the album. She thinks you’ll become a Swiftie, too.

The biggest recommendation today, though, gives to nod to Netflix for airing a FANTASTIC series called Love on the Spectrum. This program is about young adults with autism seeking love, heading on first dates, and navigating the waters of the big wide world. The show is endearing and sweet and close to Chryssy’s heart professionally. Heather also loves it. We’ve both known lots of people with autism and this is just a refreshing and kind look at what it’s like to live with being a little bit socially different.

The whole of today’s show focuses on Love on the Spectrum, love in general, and autism. It’s a sweet conversation that we hope you enjoy. We offer up a quick little lesson on people-first language and not only respecting or accepting differences but celebrating them.

Heather found a beautiful quote that we failed to drop into the show, but we will leave for you right here. 

“Diversity is being invited to the party. Inclusion is being asked to dance.” Verna Myers

Until next time!
