Synopsis

In this episode of Somebody Gets Me, I am joined by Peter Man, CEO & Founder of Virginia-based Oransi, a leading air purification company known for its efficient, intuitive, and reliable products. Peter, proudly identifies as autistic and is on a mission to raise awareness about autism in order to improve the lives of others. He discusses the stigmas that come with being autistic and how society can work towards changing them, stressing the importance of embracing one's differences and focusing on their strengths to achieve success. Peter touches on the challenges faced by the autistic community, specifically the high unemployment rate. He believes that the problem lies not with autistic individuals, but with the neurotypical hiring process that is not inclusive.

He offers support to those Neurodivergent individuals who need help navigating that aspect of the business
