He’s also autistic, and today, he opens up about how both aspects of his identity have influenced his experiences, challenges, and triumphs. We’ll dive into Dylan’s school years, his experiences with bullying, and how he found strength through photography and dance. He’ll also share his thoughts on social media—both the positives and the negatives—and the importance of representation through campaigns like ‘Changing Faces’ and ‘I Am Not Your Villain.’ Most importantly, Dylan’s story is one of hope. His journey of self-acceptance is truly inspiring, and he’ll be offering advice for anyone struggling with self-esteem or embracing their uniqueness. Get ready for an uplifting conversation about resilience, identity, and finding joy in the things that make us who we are.
