If you grew up in a NeuroDivergent household, you know the longing for a hug and the confusion of being met with practical solutions instead of emotional connection.

In this deeply nostalgic and honest episode, Dr. Marshack reflects on her childhood with a brilliant, thrifty, and emotionally distant mother who was likely on the Autism Spectrum.

You'll hear how her mother's quirky love—from dresses made of flour sacks to lessons in Feminism—shaped her ability to adapt and problem-solve.

This conversation is about recognizing that the lack of warm, fuzzy memories doesn't mean you didn't receive an incredible gift: the lasting legacy of resilience and ingenuity.
