9 | Autistic Mothers Group Princess and the Pea Podcast

    • Självhjälp

Annie speaks to Occupational Therapist and new mama, Claudia who is a neurotypical ally. Claudia works at Autism SA and was recently privileged to witness a fellow new mama (from mothers’ group) discover that was autistic. Annie and Claudia discuss the challenges of becoming a new mum and how autistic women (and AFAB individuals) can be better supported in the transition to parenthood.

Annie is passionate about helping neurotypical health professionals become more neurodiversity-affirming in practice through the promotion and valuing of lived experience expertise. We all need to help shift away from the pathologising medical model of disability and towards the social model of disability that aligns with the neurodiversity paradigm. This is a human rights, anti-discrimination issue. And we won’t stop until we’ve changed the world! #NothingAboutUsWithoutUs #DisabilityPride

*Trigger warning: some ableist language is used in this episode so please be kind to yourself and know that we are all on our own journey trying to unpack out internalised ableism. Compassion is key - to ourselves and each other.
