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? --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/justmyautism/support

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 remember watching her YouTube video "Women & Girls & Autism: What's the Difference?" (linked HERE) with my jaw dropped the entire time because it was SO relatable. Was she t

Ep 132: I'm So (Platonically) Into You

Feb 12 2024 24 mins  
Ever find a person who you are SO into...but not in a romantic way? It feels like a crush without the romance. Yes, platonic crushes are a real thing! I suspect that this is a phenomenon that affects us neurodivergent folk a little more because when we find something (or...someone) interesting, we go all in. And that's ok! (I also take a verbal sidequest and talk about actual c

Ep 131: A Chat With Autistic Drag Queen *Onda Spectrum*

Feb 05 2024 60 mins  
She's fierce, she's fabulous, she's Onda Spectrum! Clever drag name aside, this lovely Australian human is super interesting, substantially talented and an amazing interviewee. I had such a fun time talking with Onda about what it's like to be an autistic drag queen, but that's not all we got in to. We took a journey through so many topics (we both have ADHD so,

Ep 130: The Break Room Sure Doesn't Feel Like a Break

Feb 01 2024 19 mins  
How are school and work and life going?? Some parts are going great, other parts are hitting the fan. To sum it up, I'm busy but happy, stressed to the max but finding time for gratitude, and (most importantly) avoiding the break room at all costs. Sometimes self care looks like eating in your car all alone. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/
