Happy spooky season! Here's what we're diving into in this episode of AuDHD Magic:

  • Examining the hidden threads between cosplay and the AuDHD experience
  • How repressive cultural norms and my complicated family legacy turned me from a cosplay loving kid to a normcore adult
  • The family villain that unexpectedly inspired me to reclaim cosplay
  • A tale of two outfits, aka that time I wore a costume to a music festival and everything changed
  • Cosplay as an AuDHD masking hack
  • The complex nature and paradox of being seen as a neurodivergent person, and how cosplay connects me with my fae roots
  • The power of cosplay to facilitate connection and spread joy and magic
  • Why it's worth the risk of (cos)playing the fool
