As the old saying goes, “You can’t really understand another person’s experience until you’ve walked a mile in their shoes.”
Carly Fleischmann is hoping to inspire understanding after you watch her video which puts you directly in her shoes.
The 18-year-old lives with autism. She can’t speak and uses a computer to communicate.
But, not speaking hasn’t stopped Carly from advocating for autism.

She thought I didnt like her because I didn’t look at her. The moral of this story is that we are all capable.”
The video you’re about to see is groundbreaking. It’s the first time, as far as I can tell, that someone with severe autism is able to articulate what it’s like to walk in their shoes. Maybe the next time you see someone who doesn’t seem to be acting in a way that most people would describe as “normal” you’ll remember Carly and recognize that we all experience this world differently and we need to try to understand and respect everyone’s journey.
