Episode 15 – The One About Learning To Be Charming

Meet Dre Domenichini
Dre was born Autistic and found dealing with people very hard. Disappointed in his progress reaching his personal goals, he decided to harness the hyper focusing of his condition to study human behaviour. 7 Years into his journey, he is now disarmingly capable at figuring out what makes people tick and has been producing a podcast about becoming a more effective human being.
