In this episode, we dig into what autism actually looks like outside the narrow DSM lens—and how trauma, masking, and sensory life shape our identities and relationships. We call out the biases baked into the system and talk about what an autism-affirming perspective can look like in practice.

Why “congratulations, you’re Autistic” can be the most affirming diagnosis experience ever
Stimming in all eight senses, from toe-curling in your shoes to rubbing your feet on sandpaper
