“I’ve listened to five of these episodes now and each is like a mini therapy session, hearing another’s inner experience helps me name my own. Every episode, no matter how different I think the interviewee is to me, there are moments of their story which unlock my own memories, bits I squished down as uncomfortable and weird and not fitting in, these jolts from the past both strengthen my conviction that I too am autistic (rather than feeling self doubt, that I’m making it all up for some unknown but probably awful reason) and allow me to take another step away from shame to compassion and liking of myself. Incredibly powerful. Thank you.”
