  • Dr. Christopher Scott Wyatt Episode 1 – Understanding Autism
    Jan 14 2026

    Dr. Christopher Scott Wyatt is an autistic self-advocate and father of two neurodiverse daughters. He earned a doctorate researching online education and writing instruction for students with autism spectrum disorders. His experiences living with physical and neurological differences shape his parenting. Dr. Scott consults with schools, businesses, and non-profit organizations on issues of autism, neurodiversity, and active inclusion. Parenting Neurodiverse children — those with ADHD, autism, sensory processing issues, and learning disabilities — presents challenges. As a diagnosed autistic person with ADHD and physical disabilities, Dr. Scott brings his experiences as a parent, researcher, educator, and Neurodiversity self-advocacy to an audience. He and his wife chose to be parents, fostering and then adopting two daughters. Audiences ask why an autistic person would want to be a father. Dr. Scott's experiences and academic credentials empower him to advocate for their daughters in a school system that too often fails to provide reasonable support. Even well-intentioned parents, teachers, and researchers don't always understand what Neurodiverse minds and bodies experience. As a speaker with more than 150 regional and national appearances and 15 years of consulting experience, Dr. Scott discusses autism, parenting, and education from the autistic perspective. The Autistic Me blog was launched in January 2007 when he began working for others with special needs. He completed his doctoral studies in 2010 at the University of Minnesota. While a doctoral student, he conducted two grant-funded research projects on autism and instructional technology. He publishes in academic journals, co-edited a scholarly collection, and has presented numerous conference papers. Reflecting his passion for digital media, he completed a Master of Fine Arts in film and digital technology, a Master of Arts in English composition theory and rhetoric, and undergraduate degrees in English and journalism.

  • Brandon and Michelle Barber - From Rock Bottom to Resilient Leaders: Helping Others Build What Lasts
    Jan 7 2026

    Brandon and Michelle Barber faced cancer diagnoses, anxiety, business failures, burnout, and overwhelming moments. Instead of giving up, they chose to rebuild—not just their business but also their identity, purpose, and lifestyle. Their story is one of resilience, reinvention, and creating a company that doesn't drain you—it liberates you. Their Turning Point: "There was a moment where we were done. Emotionally, physically, spiritually. The constant grind, the pressure to perform, the fear of what was next—it almost took them out. Healing saved them. They started building systems. They went from surviving to scaling—with peace, purpose, and profit. Their mission became helping others do the same. They leveraged their past and created The 8-Figure Course Method—a done-for-you system that helps experts package their expertise into scalable, automated courses; Barber Coaching Mastery Certification—a coaching school for heart-led leaders seeking fundamental transformation; Resilience Leadership Systems—a blueprint for teams and companies to perform under pressure and adapt to change. They mentor leaders, creators, and entrepreneurs through life's storms and business challenges—leading them into freedom. Together, they share relatable life stories. They'll talk about: burning out at the peak of success, the pain of watching your identity fall apart, rebuilding your business to serve your family instead of taking from it, turning your life's work into leveraged income, and what it really takes to stay resilient today. They convey their message with warmth, humor, vulnerability, and no fluff. Brandon and Michelle believe people don't need more "motivation." They need systems, stories, and someone to say: "You're not broken. You're just building." You can learn more about Brandon and Michelle at https://www.brandonandmichellebarber.com/.

  • Logan Hufford - My Victory Over Sexual Addiction
    Dec 25 2025

    Logan Hufford was born and raised in Alaska. He married Carrie, who herself is a 4th-generation Alaskan. Together, they are raising four amazing but crazy little monkeys. Their life is simple - they love their family time, their dogs, and exploring the beautiful Alaskan wilderness. And yet, none of this would have been possible today if he had continued with his past. For years, Logan did just about everything in his power to destroy his marriage and his life. He was a raging sex addict who engaged in pornography, affairs, and hiring prostitutes. More had become a way of life for Logan. He thought he had no hope. In 2016, God began to change all that. Through Recovery, God transformed Logan's life and his marriage. Logan and Carrie each now lead Recovery groups, doing what they can to give back by sharing the gifts that God has given. Logan's life mission and purpose is now to share with others how that happened. Because it wasn't easy, it wasn't quick, and Logan didn't do it alone.
