Customer Reviews
Insightful and relaxed.
This podcast is informative for anyone who has newly discovered that they or a loved one are Autistic and people who already knew, but didn’t know why they felt certain ways. It is lived experience informed, so presents from a recognisable point of “the self.” I find that intuitive to map your own experience onto. I do get slightly annoyed by the birds in the background, but recognise that soundproofing material costs a lot. Overall a calming and insightful thing to wind down to. 4/5.
