🎙️ This week on *Don’t Worry It’s Confidential*, we’re joined by Elena, an inspiring Autism content creator who shares her powerful story of a late autism diagnosis. She opens up about the challenges of navigating life as a woman on the autism spectrum, particularly in a world filled with stereotypes that often overlook neurodivergent experiences, especially those of women.


In this candid episode, she discusses the misdiagnosis journey, her school life, and the complexities of job hunting and friendships. She also highlights the importance of curiosity, compassion, and not assuming you understand someone else’s unique experience.


Through her late diagnosis, she’s been learning to embrace her true self, and she’s here to inspire others to do the same. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to better understand autism, neurodiversity, and the need for a more inclusive, compassionate approach to all experiences.
