Ep 138: Relaxation ADHD Style

May 28 2024 21 mins  
Finally learning to embrace my hyperactivity and not look at it as a character flaw. Maybe people like me just find movement more relaxing than sitting still, and that’s ok! What does relaxation look like to you?

Ep 137: A Chat About Autism, Comedy, and Late Diagnosis w/Autistic Comedian Mike Brody

Apr 23 2024 84 mins  
If you know me, you know I'm all about busting those autism myths! One misconception about autistic people is that we aren't funny and don't understand humor or sarcasm. What better way to bust this myth than to have an autistic comedian on the pod?? Mike Brody has been doing stand-up for over twenty years and just received his ASD and ADHD diagnoses last year, in his m

Ep 133: OMG Sarah Hendrickx was on my podcast!

Mar 01 2024 62 mins  
Yes, I got my autism diagnosis from a psychologist, but in reality my own self-diagnosis came long before that. I credit Sarah Hendrickx with giving me my biggest "aha" moment.

(I also take a verbal sidequest and talk about actual c
