    Liberated Parenting

    In this episode of Two Mics, No Masking, Katie Scott and Jenna Goldstein are joined by Shubha Bala, Media Justice advocate, to explore what parenting looks like when the goal shifts from helping children fit in to helping them be understood. Together they discuss moving beyond compliance-based parenting, building relationships through connection, and creating environments where neurodivergent children are accepted for who they are. Through an honest conversation about trust, understanding, and belonging, they explore what it means to raise children in ways that honour their individuality rather than asking them to mask it. 🎙️ Subscribe now to hear future episodes. 🌈 Celebrate autistic voices with early access, ad-free listening, and our full archive at AutisticCulturePlus.com 🌐 Learn more about the network at AutisticCulturePodcastNetwork.com Hosted on Acast.

    Designing a Life That Works

    In this episode of Two Mics, No Masking, Katie Scott and Jenna Goldstein are joined by Rabbi Shoshana Meira Friedman, founder of the PDA Safe Circle, to explore what happens when we stop trying to fit ourselves into systems that were never designed for us. Together they discuss nervous system literacy, questioning the default blueprints we've inherited, and what it means to build a life that is sustainable, authentic, and aligned with who we are. Rather than asking how we can adapt to existing expectations, Katie, Jenna, and Shoshana explore how we can create lives that genuinely work for us. 🎙️ Subscribe now to hear future episodes. 🌈 Celebrate autistic voices with early access, ad-free listening, and our full archive at AutisticCulturePlus.com 🌐 Learn more about the network at AutisticCulturePodcastNetwork.com Hosted on Acast.

    The Myth of Adaptability: When "Resilience" Is Just Chronic Overriding

    In this episode of Two Mics, No Masking, Katie Scott and Jenna Goldstein question the way resilience is often celebrated, asking whether what's praised as adaptability is sometimes simply chronic self-abandonment. Together they explore the hidden cost of constantly overriding your own needs, how burnout can become normalised, and why enduring difficult circumstances isn't the same as thriving. Through personal reflection and honest conversation, Katie and Jenna discuss what it means to move away from survival mode and towards a life built on regulation, self-awareness, and genuine wellbeing. 🎙️ Subscribe now to hear future episodes. 🌈 Celebrate autistic voices with early access, ad-free listening, and our full archive at AutisticCulturePlus.com 🌐 Learn more about the network at AutisticCulturePodcastNetwork.com Hosted on Acast.

    Redefining Inclusion: From Conformity to Belonging

    In this episode of Two Mics, No Masking, Katie Scott and Jenna Goldstein are joined by dual-certified general and special education educator Katie Deehan to explore what true inclusion really means—and why it often looks very different from the versions many of us have experienced. Together they challenge compliance-based approaches to inclusion and discuss how classrooms can move beyond expecting children to conform. Instead, they explore what becomes possible when education is built around dignity, accessibility, and a genuine sense of belonging for every student. 🎙️ Subscribe now to hear future episodes. 🌈 Celebrate autistic voices with early access, ad-free listening, and our full archive at AutisticCulturePlus.com 🌐 Learn more about the network at AutisticCulturePodcastNetwork.com Hosted on Acast.

    When the Labels Don't Fit: Queerness, Neurodivergence, and the Freedom to Be

    In this episode of Two Mics, No Masking, Katie Scott and Jenna Goldstein are joined by Megara Bell, Director of Partners in Sex Education, to explore the intersection of queerness and neurodivergence, and what happens when the labels we're given don't reflect who we really are. Together they discuss identity, belonging, and the ways schools and society often reinforce narrow ideas of what is "normal." Through an honest conversation about authenticity, acceptance, and self-discovery, they ask what it takes to create spaces where people no longer have to shrink themselves to belong. 🎙️ Subscribe now to hear future episodes. 🌈 Celebrate autistic voices with early access, ad-free listening, and our full archive at AutisticCulturePlus.com 🌐 Learn more about the network at AutisticCulturePodcastNetwork.com Hosted on Acast.

    Humor as Kryptonite to Hierarchy

    In this episode of Two Mics, No Masking, Katie Scott and Jenna Goldstein explore the power of humour as more than entertainment. For many neurodivergent people, laughter can challenge assumptions, expose contradictions, and create connection in ways that words alone often can't. Together they reflect on how humour can cut through hierarchy, question arbitrary rules, and reveal truths that others might prefer to ignore. From everyday interactions to wider social systems, Katie and Jenna discuss why humour can be a powerful form of resistance—and why, sometimes, it's also a way of surviving. 🎙️ Subscribe now to hear future episodes. 🌈 Celebrate autistic voices with early access, ad-free listening, and our full archive at AutisticCulturePlus.com 🌐 Learn more about the network at AutisticCulturePodcastNetwork.com Hosted on Acast.

    Behaviorism as the Ultimate Human Hubris

    In this episode of Two Mics, No Masking, Katie Scott and Jenna Goldstein unpack the hidden assumptions behind behaviorism and ask what happens when society decides there's only one "right" way to think, behave, and exist. Together they explore why expecting neurodivergent people to conform can be deeply harmful, particularly for children, and challenge the belief that outward behaviour tells the whole story. Through personal reflection and honest conversation, Katie and Jenna examine what changes when we move beyond compliance and begin valuing different ways of experiencing the world. 🎙️ Subscribe now to hear future episodes. 🌈 Celebrate autistic voices with early access, ad-free listening, and our full archive at AutisticCulturePlus.com 🌐 Learn more about the network at AutisticCulturePodcastNetwork.com Hosted on Acast.

    You're Too Much / You're Not Enough

    In the first episode of Two Mics, No Masking, Katie Scott and Jenna Goldstein explore one of the most familiar experiences for neurodivergent people: being told you're simultaneously "too much" and "not enough." From being labelled "too sensitive," "too loud," or "too intense" to constantly hearing "try harder" or "calm down," Katie and Jenna reflect on the impossible expectations placed on neurodivergent people. Together they explore how these messages shape identity, relationships, parenting, and the ways we learn to mask ourselves just to fit in. 🎙️ Subscribe now to hear future episodes. 🌈 Celebrate autistic voices with early access, ad-free listening, and our full archive at AutisticCulturePlus.com 🌐 Learn more about the network at AutisticCulturePodcastNetwork.com Hosted on Acast.
