What Autism Gave Me
A Book about Autism & a Story of Hope & Perseverance
This book about autism is a powerful reminder that the human drive to succeed is much stronger than an autism diagnosis.
Michael Goodroe, Author & Motivational Speaker
An Inspiring Story for All Audiences
Author & Motivational Speaker Michael Goodroe has an extraordinary journey to share. From a child diagnosed with autism with a low IQ, facing a hopeless future, Michael refused to let his limitations define him. He found encouragement from family and friends and worked toward his goals, earning a BA in History and a Master of Business Administration. His book, What Autism Gave Me: A Devastating Diagnosis to A Triumphant Life, is a powerful testament to the unshakeable human spirit and ability to succeed despite all obstacles.
Today, Michael is a published author, works full-time, has a 4th-degree Black Belt, sings at fundraising events, and inspires others as a motivational speaker. He uses his defeats to drive success on a new path – uniquely his own – and during speaking events, he challenges audiences to do the same. Pulling from these experiences, Michael delivers uplifting speeches that have inspired many. For over a decade, he has brought inspiration to numerous businesses, universities, trade organizations, and groups of all sizes.
