A podcast for autistic adults, especially those diagnosed late, navigating identity, sensory life, masking, burnout, and what it actually means to understand yourself after years of not having the words.Created by the founder of HeyASD, a late-diagnosed autistic adult who started writing because the content he needed didn’t exist. Every episode draws from original research and lived experience published at heyasd.com, one of the most-read autism content libraries for adults online.Honest, grounded, and made without clinical distance. No awareness narratives. No parent perspectives. Just autistic experience, from the inside.The founder has situational mutism and spent much of his teenage years non-verbal. Speaking has always been costly. AI audio tools make it possible to reach people who prefer audio without that cost. The research, thinking, and perspective are entirely his own.Learn more: https://www.heyasd.com/pages/about

You are standing at the edge of the room with a drink you do not want, condensation running onto your fingers, doing the maths on the earliest minute you can leave without causing offence. Everyone else is dissolving int
You are sitting in the car with the engine off, not ready to go inside yet. Or it is three in the morning and you are hundreds of pages deep in a forum thread, reading strangers describe your own life back to you, and yo
Weeks of silence. Then picking up exactly where you left off. Parallel presence instead of constant conversation. Intensity when it matters, distance when it doesn't. Autistic friendship doesn't always look like the temp
Some of us don't fall a little. We fall completely, intrusively, consuming — and then we can't find the way out. In this episode, we talk about limerence in autistic adults: the experience of intense, involuntary romanti
"I am enough." Your brain heard that and immediately started building a case against it. In this episode, we talk about why traditional positive affirmations so often fail autistic adults — and why that failure has nothi
You start on one thing. Two hours later, the world has narrowed to a single point and everything else has gone quiet. That might be flow. Or it might be a spiral. Often it's both. In this episode, we talk about monotropi
You said something three days ago. You're still in the debrief. Not because you want to be — because your brain won't file it away. In this episode, we talk about autistic rumination: the way certain experiences, especia
Grief has a script. There are stages, timelines, expected behaviours, the right way to cry at the right moments. And for many autistic adults, none of it fits. In this episode, we talk about how autistic people experienc
Autistic fatigue isn't about sleep. You can sleep eight hours and wake up already depleted. It's the cumulative cost of processing a world that wasn't designed for your nervous system — every conversation, every sensory
You know something is wrong. You're not okay. But if someone asks you to name it, you come up blank. Not because you're not feeling anything. Because the signal between body and language is missing, delayed, or scrambled
Pause for a moment. Notice the background hum. Feel the fabric against your skin. Take in the light around you. In this episode, we talk about yoga and mindfulness not as exercise or self-improvement, but as practical to
Music is often treated as background or entertainment. For many autistic adults, it is something much more practical. In this episode, we talk about music and sound as tools for regulation rather than luxury. I explore h
Picture a moment many people recognise. You are sitting by a campfire late at night or watching waves roll in on a quiet beach. The conversation fades. Your attention settles. For a moment, your busy brain goes quiet and
There is a moment many autistic adults know well. You are in a meeting, a café, or a shop. Everything seems fine. And then, without warning, the world tips out of balance. Sounds grow sharper. Lights feel intrusive. Text
Dating can feel like a performance when you are already managing sensory input, social expectations, and uncertainty all at once. In this episode, we talk about dating as an autistic adult and why so many conventional da
Ever feel like the modern workplace is an obstacle course designed for someone else? In this episode, we talk about side hustles for autistic adults, not as hustle culture or grinding harder, but as a way to design work
Have you ever felt a kind of tiredness that sleep doesn’t touch. A heaviness where thinking feels slow and effortful, like moving through wet cement. In this episode, we talk about autistic burnout from work and how it d
We live in a culture that treats hobbies as rewards for being productive. For many autistic adults, they are something else entirely. In this episode, we talk about hobbies as lifelines rather than luxuries. I explore ho
When people talk about autism, they often stop at childhood. But adulthood does not come with fewer needs. It just comes with fewer supports. In this episode, we talk about digital tools that help autistic adults navigat
Picture this. It’s early morning. You’ve just showered and you’re standing in front of the closet. For many autistic adults, this ordinary moment isn’t neutral. It’s a decision point that can quietly drain energy before
