Adulting with Autism

Exhausted from late diagnosed autism masking as an adult? In this episode of Adulting with Autism, host April chats with Wendela Whitcomb Marsh (Dr. Wendy), award-winning author, TEDx speaker, and US Autism Association board member, on neurodivergent self-acceptance, workplace accommodations, and advocacy for high-masking autistic adults—especially women/girls/trans/ND folks. After 40 years in special ed/psychology, Dr. Wendy founded (and sold) Adult Autism Assessment & Services, drawing from her autistic family (late husband + 2/3 adult kids). Her Adulting While Autistic series (Independent Living, Dating, Relating, Parenting, Working While Autistic) and SWAN Church (Scripture & Worship for All Neurotypes) empower underserved voices. Key insights: Adult vs. child autism: Masking hides symptoms (e.g., routines for eye contact/socializing); exhaustion from "faking normal." Late-dx challenges: Women/trans/non-binary often missed (3-6x overlap with autism); bullying/shame leads to self-doubt. Workplace/family support: Frame needs as productivity wins (e.g., noise-canceling headphones/WFH); believe autistic voices—no "faking." Clinician tips: Read autistic authors, seek ND-affirming pros; self-ID valid if no paper needed (for disability/accommodations). Advocacy ahead: Boa constrictor squeeze (hard times)—stay safe, speak out; churches need inclusivity (SWAN as model). For autistic young adults unmasking or parents advocating, Dr. Wendy's optimism shines: "Nothing wrong with you—world's not built for you."

Feeling isolated as a neurodivergent man? In this episode of Adulting with Autism, host April talks modern masculinity for ND men with Josh Fineman, founder of Mensch—a North London community helping guys unplug from pressure and reconnect via men's circles, nature challenges, and 1:1 coaching. For autistic/ADHD young fathers (35-40s sweet spot), Josh addresses loneliness, purpose voids, and disconnection from self—blending ancient wisdom/modern tools for emotional courage and growth. Key insights: Core pressures: Ticking boxes (career/family) while losing self—loneliness from no village support. Men's circles magic: Safety (confidentiality/no fixing) + challenge (calling forward) for shared growth. Nature therapy anxiety: Grounding (feet on grass/breath), tree "waving" for ND calm. Unlocking purpose: Non-linear—trust instincts, small steps (follow curiosity, no one-fix pressure). Vulnerability wins: Brotherhood normalizes it; emerge via community, not solo. If you're an ND man battling isolation, burnout, or "proving" yourself (like Josh's zigzags to mentorship), this ep inspires action. Free call at bemoremensch.com—build your tribe!

Autistic pattern loops trapping you? Dr. Tony Iezzi (35+ years clinical psychologist, Reenactments co-author) shares: From Vietnam vets to ND challenges, his therapy framework—awareness (spot themes like rejection/abandonment), regulate physiology (walks/music to calm revved systems), and interrupt habits (new actions over rage/stewing)—breaks unconscious reenactments from childhood chaos. For autistic/ADHD young adults reacting to environments, parents modeling reflection, or allies fostering tools, this convo's your toolkit—journaling for insight, themes over events ("Treat sensitivities, not specifics").

Raffi Bilek (marriage coach, The Couples Communication Handbook author) shares game-changers: Talk/listen turns (no simultaneous fights), reflect back to track feelings, I-statements for impact (not blame—"I feel hurt when..."), and split convos (explore problem first, solve later)—to avoid fight-or-flight spirals.

Raffi Bilek unpacks frameworks: Over 10 years coaching, his Couples Communication Handbook teaches talk/listen turns (one speaks, other reflects—no overlap), I-statements ("I feel..." vs. accusations), and dual convos (understand problem before solving)—for ND mismatches like flat affect/body language gaps. Repair essentials: Pause for calm (schedule returns, no dish-throwing emergencies), self-soothe (breathing/exercise before fight-or-flight), and active listening (chunk/reflect to confirm understanding). For autistic young adults dating/decoding signals, partners practicing validation, or allies fostering bonds, Raffi's "defense isn't helpful—impact motivates change" flips blame to connection. Why counsel early? Cheaper than divorce; individual therapy for personal issues (e.g., trauma/OCD) alongside couples work.
