Living with Tourettes

Living with Tourettes

This week I sit down with Anya who talks about living with Tourettes, and how it fits in with neurodiversity. Misconceptions; people assume a lot about how it presents and how it feels. We could all do with a little more compassion and understanding.

Autistic Prime Minister

Autistic people should be able to be major or even prime minister or president. Some ideas of what that would look like, what that would mean for society.

Speak with Respect

Sometimes people talk to people with autism (or other forms of neurodiversity) as if we're babies. Or they talk down to us, give us toys or disrespect us in other ways. I tell a funny story about "Bingo Night" at my place. Also, I talk about the "halo effect" and have a few controversial opinions about responsibility, and even going to jail, as an autistic person. What do you think? Listen, follow, like and share, and take the poll.

Dating Back Then

Today I sit down with Bradley Charbonneau from the "Repossible" podcast, a fantastic storyteller, author and coach. Bradley helps people answer the question: “Now What?!” Bradley helps authors and creators to overcome inner blocks and step into who they’re meant to be next.  We spoke about what dating was like back then, before mobile phones, before the social media, and the internet. Dating was live, real, now, and in-person. The world was smaller. Was it better? Listen to find out.

Ghosting (part I)

This is a short episode, part I of II, that talks about that thing we all do but we all hate it when it happens to us: ghosting! Enjoy my rant about how immature it is, and next time, we'll talk about how to end conversations in a way that's kinder, more respectful and doesn't leave the other person guessing.
