In this inspiring episode of Info On The Go, we explore the extraordinary life and legacy of Temple Grandin—a scientist, inventor, and autism advocate whose unique mind reshaped two worlds: animal science and autism awareness.

From her early struggles with communication and social connection to her groundbreaking work in humane livestock handling, Grandin’s journey is one of resilience, innovation, and advocacy. Raised in a time when autism was barely understood, she defied expectations and built a career guided by visual thinking, empathy for animals, and a fierce determination to improve the world around her.

We’ll delve into how her childhood experiences led to the invention of the famous hug machine, how her sensory insights revolutionized animal welfare, and how she became one of Time magazine’s 100 most influential people. Along the way, we’ll also spotlight key autism facts, the evolution of diagnosis and advocacy, and the growing importance of neurodiversity in society.

Whether you're familiar with Temple Grandin’s story or hearing it for the first time, this episode is a tribute to the power of thinking differently—and the remarkable impact one mind can have on millions.
