Customer Reviews
Newly diagnosed adult female
As a 39 year old woman with a recent diagnosis of being Autistic, this podcast is excellent. Pick it up at any point (although I am compelled to listen from the beginning, autistic trait perhaps?!). Is also great to share with friends and family to help them get a snapshot of Autism to understand myself and our son who is undergoing diagnosis. Thank you for taking the time to produce this podcast 🥰 Anna.
