My Adult Autism Diagnosis

Hello and welcome to the unfiltered Autistic Podcast. 
The Podcast that aims to give an unfiltered account of
Autistic lived experiences, created and hosted by me Amanda Mc Guinness, an
Autistic Autism and Visual Support Specialist and parent to 4 Neurodivergent
children.
Having spent a lifetime filtering my true self, to be the
person I felt others wanted me to be, I realised at the age of 39 I could no longer
be that person.
It was time to be my true unfiltered Autistic self.
I realised I deserved to have the same compassion and
thoughtfulness I put out into the world. 
I deserved to be me.
