Welcome! This is a podcast dedicated to those both on (and off) the spectrum who see the world differently. This is a safe space to express and find unique perspectives, perceptions and observations. A podcast dedicated to deeply listening and hearing each other, and our divergent viewpoints that may otherwise come across as a challenge to neural-normal thinking. Do you see the world through a different lens? Are you thirsting to meet others who see things differently and question implicit social conventions and hierarchies? Not all minds think alike. Neurodiversity is as important as biodiversity.

Hi, this is Tom Tortorich, host of "Off the Spectrum."
I am also a self-published novelist (https://www.amazon.com/Tom-Tortorich/e/B007Z0YEUU) and a Public Speaker on the very important topic of Global Warming. My flagship talk is: "The Birds & the Bees: Having the Climate Crisis Conversation."
This is no easy way to earn a living, but it keeps me busy. Speaking engagements are often done on a donation basis, as is support for this Podcast.
After surviving a survivor of a suicide attempt in 2019, I became even more determined to live a purpose-driven life. If you connect at all with my material, you can clearly see the difficulty that high-functioning individuals on the autism spectrum like myself have in navigating the world. Your support is truly appreciated .... and definitely needed.
But, above all, thank you for taking the time to listen to this content and having the open-mind and the willingness to see the world through different eyes. Different eyes are crucial as we face serious challenges to business-as-usual.
Please help support these goals by donating through PayPal if you are at all able. Thanks again.
