In this episode I talk with Joanne Seymon about the story behind "Kaiko Fidgets", a fidget tool company that Joanne and her son Kai founded together. Joanne and I also talk about how fidget tools can be essential for hyperactive kids and adults who may struggle with self harm or simply need self stimulation in order to focus or regulate sensory input

In this episode I talk about some exciting upcoming projects I'm working on and a quick reminder on the history of the neurodiversity movement.
*We must always remember everyone's experience with neurodiversity is different, some people are more disabled by their neurotype and require more support than others
-
In this episode I talk about the autistic experience of smiling when feeling overwhelmed or anxious regarding certain situations, particularly when it comes to interactions with other people.
-
In this episode I discuss why autistics can develop different styles of masking depending on the specific people or groups of people they are interacting with
-
In this episode I explain why many people might seem to have less ability to do certain things after a diagnosis of Autism or ADHD, when in reality they just have a better understanding of how their brain works and more confidence in setting boundaries with others based on discovering they do in fact have a disability.
-
In this episode I discuss the deeply ableist, irresponsible, problematic and offensive narrative around Autism propagated by Netflix's new documentary and the response from the autistic community and organizations such as the UK National Autistic Society.

In this episode I talk about some of the difficulties many autistics like me experience when it comes to navigating friendships, such as being able too tell who is a friend or not, as well as understanding non-verbal communication, which can be very challenging for autistic people to read and understand because it is not how we typically communicate.
-
In this episode I give a refresher on emotional empathy vs cognitive empathy and explain how sensory overload and mental shutdowns can play a role in autistics being perceived as not having empathy. This is largely due to the medical community refusing to learn from listening to the internal experiences of autistic people.
-
In this episode I discuss the main differences in between autistic and non-autistic communication styles, as well as the main reasons autistics are often misunderstood.
-
For this episode, as we approach Autism Acceptance Month, I give a brief history "Autism awareness month" and explain why many autistics (including myself) prefer to say "Awareness and Acceptance" and how non-autistic people can be good allies and help make the world more accommodating to autistic folks, instead of pushing "cures" and "treatments", which are rooted in the old ableist eugenics narrative of Hans Asperger and the hate group "Autism Speaks" (tune in to Episode 14 of this podcast if you'd like to learn more about why you shouldn't support this organization and who to support instead).
