If you buy a lot of crap from China - as I am at the moment - you'll notice the use of any old letters together as a brand name. Here they've gone one step further and created a slogan with it. Quite inspirational, I myself shall be trying to be more consciously jsver from now on.

New Episode Today!

There's silliness at the top of this episode. We nearly cut it out, maybe due to the vestiges of internalised ableism but decided to keep it for authenticity. We can be silly & childlike AND have deep & vulnerable conversations!

In this episode we reflect on the new calendar year and how or whether this has significance for us.

We speak about themes of hope and expectation, change and growth, from an autistic perspective and weave in some therapeutic insights along the way.

We welcome your feedback. 💛🧡

Welcome new followers - I seem to have picked up a bunch today. Maybe the algorithm is a little bit in love with me today?

Whatever the reason, I suppose it's time to look at the spreadsheet of social post ideas I've been building for 3 years, and make some!

Here's my dogs, Woody & Molly. #AuDHD
