Putting Autism Acceptance into Action
Hi Reader,
Welcome back to my last email to celebrate Autism Awareness/Acceptance Month! As we near the end of the month, I want to reflect a bit more on what Autism Acceptance in Action looks like.
✧˖° Autism Acceptance in Action ✧˖°
Autism Acceptance can easily become a checkbox that we mark off once a year. But the reality is, to move toward true inclusion requires ongoing action throughout the year. That's why this month I've been doing a series over on Instagram and my blog where I break down what Autism Acceptance looks like in action.
Each week I've explored different contexts and offered practical and concrete steps that we as a society can take to foster greater inclusion.
By delving into various aspects of life, we've been able to highlight specific areas where progress can be made. From education and employment to community support and relationships, we have discussed actionable ways to cultivate an environment that embraces and supports neurodiversity.
You can see a highlight of my infographics below 👇🏼
It is my hope that these discussions have resonated with you and inspired actionable steps toward change. Autism Acceptance is an ongoing journey that requires collective effort and commitment throughout the year. Thanks for following along with this series and helping to cultivate greater inclusion.

How to Continue To Support Neurodivergent Individuals
In the coming weeks you'll receive some news about the mutual aid fund I have launched. Each month I'll be sponsoring one neurodivergent person, sharing a bit of their story, and 10% of proceeds from my workbooks will go toward supporting that person. You can also donate to them directly through the Neurodivergent Insights mutual aid campaign. So stay tuned for ways to support Autistic individuals directly!

Hey Reader, As many of you know, we’ve been making some big behind-the-scenes changes to our website over the past few months — including moving to a new e-commerce platform. We’ve now completed the migration of customer accounts from Squarespace (old system) to our new system. If you’ve made a purchase in the past, you now have an account on our updated site — this means you can access your previous downloads and order information more easily going forward. However you’ll need to re-set your...
Read the Full Essay Online Hi Reader, Recently I’ve been exploring themes around being perceived — especially publicly. This week, I want to turn the lens inward and explore what it’s like when we perceive ourselves... and the many parts that make up who we are. Lately, I've been thinking more about how my Autistic and ADHD parts relate to each other. This is something I've been sharing in bits and pieces, and it’s sparked some rich conversations — both with others and within myself — about...
Hi Reader, How’s that for a headline? And where do we begin? Let’s start with being perceived. On Being Perceived Like many Autistic humans, I struggle with being perceived. And when I am perceived, I want a high degree of control over it. (This is why, when I give presentations, I script out every single word and know exactly when I’ll click to the next imagery or the next slide — I’m working on it, trying to get more comfortable with bullet points so I can actually do more presentations.)...
