Mandy and Kate chat to Michelle, founder of Kaboose, an app that provides a safe space for the autistic and neurodiverse community, aged 7 to 30, to connect with peers around interests, find friends, mentors and jobs.
Seeing her own teen autistic peashoot Nick struggling with loneliness, Michelle decided to develop Kaboose to help him safely find his tribe. She has a professional background in people and culture in the IT field, and decided to use her expertise and connections to bring Kaboose to life.
Michelle chats about Nick’s early years, including diagnosis, early intervention, kinder and schooling and all the challenges that go along with it. Michelle also talks about her family’s time during the pandemic, which was particularly tough on everyone’s mental health. She then chats about the process of developing the app and launching it, the app's features, and shares some of the wonderful feedback she’s received already.
Thank you for sharing your incredible story with us Michelle, we love Kaboose! Peas, find out more about Kaboose via their website, Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn

Kate and Mandy chat with Dalal, founder of SATB2 Connect, an advocacy organisation for people and families affected by SATB2 Associated Syndrome.
SATB2 Connect was inspired by Dalal’s experiences with her daughter Naomi, who has the rare genetic condition. Started in 2021 (during COVID, a few days before Christmas!) SATB2 Connect was created to support those living with SATB2 Associated Syndrome and its symptoms. SATB2 Connect aims to raise awareness, advocate, raise funds and drive research to educate, support and collaborate with researchers, medical professionals, therapists and families.
Dalal talks about the diagnosis journey, finding her ‘advocacy gene’ and reaching out to specialists and researchers at the University of Sydney to partner with them on much-needed SATB2 research, and student project opportunities in OT, speech and biomedical engineering.
Dalal also shares her dreams for the future in supporting people and families with SATB2, including specialist clinics and support and respite options. Thank you Dalal for sharing your story with us.
