Something most of the neurodivergent people I talk to have in common is a sense of not belonging. Connecting is supposed to be natural—but for many of us, it never feels that simple. In this solo episode, I explore some of my early friendships, what it means to want friendships and relationships while not understanding how they work. I tried learning from books and TV, and by trying to decipher how other people behaved, but it often didn't make sense or work for me. It wasn't obvious. 

This episode isn't a one-size-fits-all checklist or suggestion box—it's an invitation to get curious. It's about viewing friendship, connection, and relationships not as things we’re just supposed to know how to do, but as things we can learn, study, question, and create our own ideas for.
