A few nights ago, we watched an incredibly inspirational movie about the life of Temple Grandin, an autistic woman who overcame A LOT to become one of the premier experts on humane animal treatment in places with cattle ranches and slaughterhouses. Her autism gave her the unique ability to see life in immense visual detail, similar to the way cattle and other animals see the world. As a result, she was able to explain what scares cattle and how to keep them calm, which both improves animal quality of life and efficiency for companies.
More amazing that her accomplishments was her facing a number of fears and intense criticism throughout her life. Kindra and I were near tears at several points, and felt incredibly inspired afterwards. It's worth checking out!
