About this listen

ASDIsAbility is a podcast dedicated to exploring neurodiversity with a particular focus on Autism Spectrum Disorder, ASD. I share insights, personal experiences, and practical ways to understand ourselves better, celebrate neurodiverse strengths, and embrace the reality that ASD is ability. The episodes cover many facets of life with ASD, with stories that resonate for those with ASD and those around them. Join me regularly for new discussions that support community, learning, and acceptance.

Connect with me and join the conversation on YouTube and Instagram at @midlifecrusher where you are invited to follow me as I share my journey of thriving in midlife crisis and living with ASD. You will be able to share comments, questions, and experiences.
