Helps me navigate my new found diagnosis!

Slava really covers so much and with great depth on what it means to be diagnosed later in life. This is really helping me through this both difficult and exciting time. Thank you for what you do for our community Slava! Greg S.

My favourite podcast about autism

I am looking forward to each new episode - it’s helped me so much to understand myself better! (I’ve also been diagnosed as an adult).

I frequently send episodes to my family and friends, especially the ones that I think can help them understand me and other autistic people better — so far they loved each one, and found them very interesting.

I am also hopeful the episodes can help my family and friends to change their preconceptions about autism and autistic people, and maybe they’ll pass the knowledge to their friends.

I’m so happy to have discovered this!

As a late diagnosed autistic woman who has many questions about my autism that no one seems to have answers for, I feel like this podcast is a wish granted! I have only finished the first season and have learned much about my autism and that makes my life so very much easier. Full of great tips and lots of humour as well.
