In this eye-opening episode, we go beyond the basics of stimming and explore a lesser-known but just as important type: vocal stimming. While many people associate stimming in autism and ADHD with physical actions like rocking, hand-flapping, or leg bouncing, there’s another side to it—repetitive vocal behaviors like humming, echolalia, or repeating certain words or sounds.

We break down what self-stimulatory behavior (stimming) is, why it happens, and how both physical and vocal stimming serve as vital coping tools for neurodivergent individuals—especially those with autism and ADHD dual diagnosis. Whether it's calming anxiety or expressing joy, stimming is a valid and important part of many autistic lives.

🎯 In this episode, you’ll learn:

• What stimming really means and why it’s not “just a habit”

• The difference between voluntary and involuntary stimming

• What vocal stimming looks and sounds like

• Why recognizing and embracing stimming is part of autism acceptance

• Tools that support healthy stimming (like the ONO Roller + Audio Stim Pack!)

In this episode, we dive deep into a fascinating and often misunderstood topic—stimming in ADHD vs autism. While both autistic and ADHD individuals may engage in self-stimulatory behaviors, the why and how behind those actions are very different—and understanding these differences can lead to better self-awareness, support, and daily coping strategies.

If you have both autism and ADHD, you know the struggle: autism wants to hyperfocus, ADHD wants to jump from one thing to the next. It’s like a battle in your brain for control! Stimming becomes one way we manage this internal chaos—but it’s not always easy to understand or explain.

🎯 In this episode, you’ll learn:

• What stimming looks like in ADHD vs autism

• Why autistic stimming is often involuntary and sensory-driven

• Common examples like rocking, hand flapping, or chewing on clothing

• How ADHD stimming is more movement-driven and attention-seeking

• What it’s like to live with both diagnoses and how they interact

This is a must-listen for autistic adults, ADHDers, or anyone exploring dual diagnosis and looking to better understand their neurodivergent behavior.

In this important episode, I dive headfirst into the growing controversy surrounding RFK Jr’s comments about autism—specifically, his discredited claim that vaccines cause autism. If you’ve seen the viral RFK Jr “full-blown autism” rant or caught the buzz from outlets like Fox News or social media, you know this topic is sparking debate everywhere.

But here’s the thing: these claims aren’t just wrong—they’re dangerous. As someone from the autistic community, I’m breaking down the facts behind this myth, the damage it causes, and why it’s critical that we push back with real science, lived experience, and compassion.

🎯 In this episode, you’ll learn:

• What RFK Jr actually said about autism and vaccines

• The long-debunked vaccine-autism myth and how it persists

• The real-life impact these statements have on autistic people and their families

In this episode, I’m diving into a comment I hear all the time: “You talk so fast!” Sound familiar? For many of us on the autism spectrum, fast speech isn’t just a quirk—it’s how our brains and bodies naturally sync up. If you’re autistic and have ever been told to “slow down,” this one’s for you.

I’ll share what fast talking means for me as an autistic adult, why it’s often misunderstood, and how it connects to processing speed, anxiety, ADHD, and sensory overload. We’re flipping the script on this so-called “issue” and embracing it as just another part of our neurodivergent communication style.

🎯 In this episode:

• Why autistic people might speak quickly

• The link between autism, ADHD, and fast talking

• How to manage fast speech in social or professional settings

• Ways to self-regulate without masking your true self

• Tips for explaining your communication style to others

Whether you speak quickly or know someone who does, this episode brings compassion and clarity to a very real part of autistic life.
