Being an autistic woman in a non-autistic world
Have you ever felt alone, confused, and apologetic because you know something about yourself that is wired differently from other people? Mathilde did. In this episode, Mathilde shares her diagnosis journey, her perspective, experience as an autistic woman interacting with the world and herself. She points out that not all autism looks the same, and the representation of autism
should be more diverse and inclusive, more than the ones present in the mass media. She encourages people to be more empathetic, stepping into other’s shoes to understand their struggle and joy. At the end of the day, “all we ultimately have is each other.”
