In this special episode, Nic King is thrilled to welcome Dr. Amy Pearson, an assistant professor at Durham University, who shares her insights into autistic identity, masking, and victimisation among autistic individuals.

Dr. Pearson, a late-diagnosed autistic woman, dives deep into her research and discusses her co-authored book on autistic masking.  

This discussion not only highlights the complexities of autistic experiences but also explores the impact of stigma on identity management within the autistic community.
