Withholding love is not the same as setting boundaries. It is a form of control rooted in fear, not alignment.

When I say yes out of fear, guilt, or survival-mode people-pleasing, I’m not being kind to myself 👀 I’m betraying me to keep the peace.
.
But when my yes comes from alignment and they’re meeting me there 👏🏾👏🏾 that kindness flows both ways. That yes is a gift not a cost!

I am clear. I am calm. I am capable. Even if I stim, even if I pause.

As an autistic leader, there are moments I miss social cues. Times I get overwhelmed and shut down instead of speaking up. Times I over-explain or under-respond. I’ve learned that leadership isn’t about always getting it “right.”
It’s about repairing when I don’t.

Shoutout to all my fellow #neurospicy folks out here negotiating with our own brains like a hostage situation. What’s y’all’s go-to trick for breaking the paralysis? Or do we all just suffer in solidarity?

First, it was bathrooms, then sports, and now they’re getting to what they really wanted — the complete erasure of the trans community.
Also, if you think this is going to stop at trans people, you are deeply mistaken.

I need y'all to sit with this headline and understand what is being done to our community. They're trying to criminalize our very existence.
This is a campaign of eradication.

Therapist said I’m experiencing #autisticgrief for the first time since my diagnosis. I didn’t realize I was masking before but Saturday I went nonverbal, and it shook me. She said I’m more aware of how my brain handles stress now. Instead of masking, it just shuts down. 🥺😩
