At just 14, today’s guest made the life-altering decision to move out on her own—navigating survival, independence, and emotional isolation far earlier than most. Six years later, another pivotal moment arrived: an autism diagnosis at age 20 that reframed everything she thought they knew about themselves.

In this episode, we explore what it means to grow up too fast, to live misunderstood, and to finally find the words to explain your experience. Through raw honesty and reflection, this conversation uncovers the deep connection between early independence, late diagnosis, and the ongoing journey of healing and identity.

In this powerful and deeply personal episode, we sit down with Clif Knight, a queer Black comedian who immigrated to Canada as a young adult. We talk about what it means to find your voice after leaving everything familiar behind, growing up in-between cultures and expectations, and turning pain into punchlines. From awkward years to spotlight moments on stage, this is a story of resilience, laughter, and becoming unapologetically yourself.
