Overcoming limiting beliefs – with Lawrence C. Harris, Autistic Youth Speaker

Lawrence C. Harris is a youth empowerment speaker who helps teens and young adults believe in themselves, think differently about their future, and make better choices. Growing up as a young autistic boy, Lawrence faced serious challenges. Those experiences led him to start speaking so other young people would know they are not alone and that their past does not have to decide where their life goes.

During this episode, you will hear Lawrence talk about:

  • What life was like growing up before he got diagnosed with autism
  • The limiting beliefs that made him hesitate to share his experiences with others, and how he overcame those limiting beliefs
  • How he got started as a public speaker
  • How he helps young people overcome their own limiting beliefs
