Welcome to episode 95. Today, we’re discussing communication — the challenges neurodivergent people face and the strategies they use to navigate a world that can feel unfamiliar. We explore how thoughts and emotions are shared, and how autistic burnout adds to these struggles. Whether you're neurodivergent or neurotypical, this conversation aims to inspire empathy and strengthen our connections. Let’s dive in!

In this episode:

• Autistic burnout and communication — how it differs from life/professional burnout and its effect on my ability to communicate.
• The toll of miscommunication — the energy spent to be understood and its lasting impact.
• Why it all matters - how empathy in communication benefits us all, not just those who are neurodivergent.
