8. Stop blaming me for miscommunications when communication works two ways. You can’t expect me to just know what you mean if you don’t state it clearly and literally. My brain is different to yours. That does not mean my brain is in the wrong. We have to work together.

10. Autism is not all bad. If you could experience autistic joy, you would understand, because it is the most wonderful feeling. Our brains hyper-focus on whatever it is that is making us happy, and we are completely captivated by joy. It is all-encompassing and it is wonderful.

11. When an autistic person tells you that they are autistic, don’t say “don’t you mean a person with autism?”. The majority of autistic people prefer identity-first language, i.e. ‘autistic person’. You shouldn’t need to be reminded that we are a person first, before our autism.

You wouldn’t say that “I have left-handedness”, would you? You’d just say that “I am left-handed”.

14. Meltdowns aren’t the same thing as tantrums. Meltdowns are involuntary responses to feeling overwhelmed. Stop labelling autistic kids “naughty” or “spoilt” for something that they can’t control. Support them and try to understand the trigger instead.

Thank you for listening. Yours sincerely, an autistic person who is tired of being misunderstood.

Donald Duke saying it as it is without mincing words. BAT and Atiku supporters need to hear this because a lot of them think this way.

Innovation does not make you an entrepreneur, the ability to find customers who are willing to pay for your service makes you an entrepreneur. - Tara Fela-Durotoye, tara fela-durotoye Entrepreneur The Platform Nigeria #CTVTweets

Having parents who have exemplified what it means to be in a healthy, supportive marriage where you prioritize each other & both play an active role in your children’s lives is the single most important thing that has shaped my life & given me an unshakable emotional foundation.

I’m going to keep saying it, creating generational wealth is not just about financial support. Most generational curses have nothing to do with finances and everything to do with a lack of emotional care & genuine attention during childhood. A strong family unit is a blessing

SCALABLE LEADERSHIP SUMMIT 2025. Excited to be speaking on July 28 at the Marriott GRA ikeja. See you there!
