In this episode of The Karol Markowitz Show, Karol sits down with journalist and author Leland Vittert to discuss his new book, Born Lucky, and his deeply personal journey growing up with autism. Vittert opens up about how his parents’ love and adaptability shaped his path, the lessons he’s learned about character and perseverance, and what honest conversations about autism should look like today. The discussion also touches on the evolving national dialogue around autism and the hope emerging from new research and treatments.
