Listen "18. From Pharmacist to Tech Consultant While Embracing Autism"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, Nancy chats with Jamal Waterburn, a pharmacist turned tech consultant and podcast host who discovered he was autistic in his 40's. His story is full of twists, resilience, and real talk about navigating work and life with a differently wired brain. You'll hear Jamal open up about: Bouncing from pharmacy to tech (and finally finding his groove). What it was like getting diagnosed later in life. How masking, burnout, and missed cues showed up at work. Why ChatGPT became one of his best therapy tools. The real power of leadership that sees the human behind the résumé. This one's honest, eye-opening, and a reminder that different doesn't mean broken—it just means we lead, work, and live a little differently.
