Brain Club®: The Podcast - S1E2- Understanding Your Nervous System
What does it mean to understand your own nervous system — and your access needs — after a lifetime of masking, burnout, or being misunderstood? In this episode, community panelists reflect on the often painful process of unlearning internalized messages and beginning to name what they need. This conversation also explores the power of connection: how healing can begin when we're seen, heard, and surrounded by others on similar paths.
This conversation was originally recorded as part of All Brains Belong’s Brain Club® — a weekly community education program focused on demonstrating neuroinclusive culture in action.
Brain Club is not medical advice or a support group — it’s an invitation to think differently about health, connection, and how we build systems that include everyone.
Join us live most Tuesdays at 6:00 PM ET and explore 4 years of past videos at allbrainsbelong.org/brain-club
Content warning: Around the 30-minute mark, there is discussion of suicidality in autistic adults — please take care while listening.
Panelists:
AnnaRose Jenisch, Linnea Noyes Alvar R, Peter Sher
Speaker accessibility note:
One of our speakers uses a speech-generating device activated by eye gaze. The volume of these segments may be quieter than others, so we invite you to turn up your volume if needed to hear their full contributions.
