The Deep Dive

I’m Michael Coles, and I’m deeply passionate about raising awareness and understanding of autism. Drawing from my personal journey and professional experiences, I’ve dedicated myself to sharing the realities of autistic burnout and how to create inclusive workplaces that support individuals on the autism spectrum.

I am currently host The Deep Dive Podcast and am also a Program Faciliator at Empower Autism on a adhoc basis.

I’ve had the privilege of being a guest on podcasts like Differently Brained and The Thriving Workplace Podcast, where I’ve shared my story to inspire and educate others. My aim is to provide actionable insights and encouragement to those facing similar challenges, as well as to the people and organizations who support them.

Currently based on the Gold Coast in Queensland, I’d love to engage in an in-depth conversation about my journey and the lessons I’ve learned, offering you a unique perspective on autism advocacy and burnout recovery.

You can check out my previous podcast appearances and ongoing initiatives through my Linktree. I look forward to connecting with you and your listeners to inspire positive change.
