Let's talk about being Black, a Woman, and Autistic! As black women, we are already the minority, but when you are Autism, it is an extra level of being a minority. I want to discuss navigating life, getting a diagnosis, the challenges, and the positives of being autistic.
This episode covers the difficulty of being gaslighted by everyone during my ASD diagnosis. I am talking about life both before (childhood symptoms) and after being diagnosed (the positives). It highlights the significance of people of color receiving a diagnosis of ASD.

Welcome! Here is the teaser for what's to come. I started this channel because there is a massive gap between black people and women in the Autistic world. We do have to navigate differently, even to our other autistic individuals. From getting diagnosed to the level of masking, we have to do to survive. We are true minorities, but hopefully, I can create a safe space for us to relate and share thoughts.
