On episode 18 I discuss coronavirus (briefly, don't worry, that is not the main discussion here) and how we're all dealing with this situation differently, I talk about meltdowns and burnout, easy traps we often fall into within (self) advocacy and processing a new diagnosis, and more of my info-dumping rants!

On episode 17, I go a bit deeper into the reality and complexities of unmasking. I question if it really is harmful, or bad for us, or is it an unrealistic expectation that puts unnecessary pressure on us?. I also weigh the risks and benefits while discussing why some parts of the late diagnosis journey (and maybe even goals of neurodiversity) may be unrealistic for most of us. -----> Plus info on my new Patreon account!

On episode 16 I share about the past rollercoaster week that started with a disaster from hell and has now ended with more clarity than I feel like I've ever had. I question if masking is all bad, discuss emotional regulation and how emotional dysregulation sabotages way too much of my life, relationships, and the fine line between autistic acceptance and making excuses for myself.

On episode 15, I share feedback I received from a psychologist regarding a past episode, I discuss cancel culture and why it hurts the adult autistic community/neurodiversity, discuss infighting within the community and more! This episode is quite literally a thought stream of consciousness... so, enjoy my ramblings! 

NT/ND relationships are not always easy, but they don’t have to be so hard! I invited my husband, Dylan, to join me and help me share our journey from both perspectives on The Not Neurotypical Podcast. We share the challenges we faced during my late diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder, how we both needed different supports and we even answer questions from The Not Neurotypical Squad!

Delaney Cline is an employment consultant for disabled adults. I invited Delaney on the podcast to discuss common employment challenges facing ND/disabled adults and we both share our own challenges, she shares her story, discusses tips and tricks for self-advocacy in the workplace, interview tips, and I even got to ask specific questions from my followers and members of The Not Neurotypical Squad!

You probably already know about my autism evaluation, but what about all of the people who feel it IN THEIR BONES that they are autistic and their first evaluation goes wrong? I invited Carrie L. Johnson (host of the "Yeah, I Went There." Podcast) to discuss her adult autism evaluation and share more about her story.  

You've made it to season 2 with me! Season 1 was all about the realization and process of my late diagnosis. Now, starting my next season (season 2), I am learning how to find my voice and growing within this new world I've thrown myself into. Lots of fun to come on Season 2! I'm so happy you're joining me :)
