In this episode of Adulting with Autism, host April is joined by Jennifer Zach, executive coach, author, and somatic leadership expert, to explore how somatic awareness and nervous system regulation can support autistic and neurodivergent adults in work, relationships, and daily life. Jennifer is the author of Somatic Awareness: Leading with Body Intelligence and creator of the 3N Model™ — Notice, Name, Navigate, a practical framework that helps people recognize stress signals in the body, regulate overwhelm, and make aligned decisions instead of operating from survival mode. Together, April and Jennifer discuss: What somatic awareness really means (and why the body knows before the brain) How autistic burnout shows up in the nervous system The difference between discomfort and actual danger Why masking and people-pleasing exhaust the body How body intelligence supports authentic communication and self-leadership Practical micro-practices to regulate stress in real time Why resilience is more than "pushing through" How somatic tools can improve work environments, leadership, and emotional safety This episode is especially valuable for autistic adults, late-diagnosed individuals, professionals navigating sensory overload, and anyone feeling disconnected from their body due to chronic stress or overwhelm. Guest: Jennifer Zach Website: somaticallyaware.com Book: Somatic Awareness: Leading with Body Intelligence If you're looking for grounded, practical strategies to calm your nervous system, reduce burnout, and live with more clarity — this episode is for you.

If reading the news leaves you overwhelmed, angry, or completely checked out—you're not broken. The system is. In this episode of Adulting with Autism, I'm joined by Kira Shishkin, founder and CEO of informed.now, a platform built for people who want to stay informed without being manipulated, overstimulated, or emotionally drained. Kira shares how her own struggles with attention, overload, and disability shaped a radically different approach to news—one that prioritizes facts, primary sources, and respect for the reader's time and nervous system. We talk about: Why modern news is designed to hijack attention "Structural sensationalism" and how advertising drives outrage Why many autistic and neurodivergent people avoid the news entirely How to consume information without doom scrolling or shutdown What media minimalism and "news mindfulness" actually look like Why informed.now delivers fact-based news via simple text messages This episode is especially for autistic adults, ADHDers, and anyone whose mental health takes a hit from constant media overload—but still wants to understand what's happening in the world.

Stress, trauma, and nutrition are often treated like separate issues but what if they're all part of the same conversation? In this episode of Adulting with ADHD, Sarah sits down with licensed nutritionist and author Meg Bowman to explore how the nervous system and nutrition are deeply connected, especially for adults with ADHD. Meg shares how her own Crohn's diagnosis led her into the world of mental health nutrition, and why supporting the nervous system is just as important as choosing the "right" foods. Together, they unpack how stress and trauma shape the body's relationship with food, why consistency can feel extra hard with ADHD, and how nutrition can become a source of safety rather than another area of pressure or shame. This conversation offers a compassionate reframe: instead of asking "What should I be eating?", we can start asking "What helps my body feel safe enough to eat?" In this episode, we talk about: How the nervous system and digestion influence each other Why fear, stress, and trauma can shut down hunger cues What polyvagal theory has to do with food and regulation Why traditional nutrition advice often doesn't work for ADHD brains How visibility, simplicity, and support can make eating easier The idea of "taking care of future you" with low-effort planning How community and shared executive function can reduce decision fatigue Meg also shares insights from her book, This Is Your Body on Trauma, including: How trauma shows up in the body as inflammation Why chronic stress is linked to long-term health conditions A framework for understanding food, gut health, stress, and mental health together How to build a personal nutrition toolkit that feels supportive instead of restrictive If food feels complicated, overwhelming, or emotionally loaded, this episode offers a gentler way forward, one that centers safety, nervous system regulation, and self-compassion instead of perfection.

Dirty diapers, snotty, runny noses, puke or bloody knees and dangling baby teeth. LBF remembers when it was cold season; she would wipe Lucy's nose with her sleeve!

Liliana Olivares es una emprendedora mexicana que ha tenido un impacto enorme en su generación. Estudió teatro, formación que marcó su manera de comunicar, conectar y contar historias. Durante más de 15 años trabajó en el mundo corporativo, dentro de la industria de la aviación, donde creció profesionalmente y construyó una carrera sólida.Con el tiempo, Liliana se dio cuenta de algo clave: nadie le había enseñado a ser adulta. A pesar de su experiencia profesional, tenía una mala relación con el dinero y las finanzas, y comenzó a cuestionarse por qué conceptos tan básicos nunca le fueron explicados.A partir de esa experiencia personal nace Adulting, una plataforma de educación financiera enfocada en millennials, que ha impactado a más de 70,000 personas, ayudándoles a tomar control de sus finanzas, romper creencias limitantes y construir una relación más consciente con el dinero.Además, Liliana es autora del libro “Maldita Pobreza” y creadora del podcast del mismo nombre, espacios donde habla de dinero de forma directa y honesta, explicando conceptos que nadie nos había explicado y aterrizando temas financieros complejos a la vida real.Liliana es mamá, emprendedora y esposa, y su trabajo hoy gira en torno a una idea muy clara: con la mentalidad correcta y herramientas prácticas, es posible salir de deudas y construir un mejor futuro.

Getting started can feel harder than the work itself—especially when your brain insists on finding the perfect system before you begin. In this episode of Adulting with ADHD, Sarah sits down with Russ Jones, host of the ADHD Big Brother Podcast, to explore what happens when we stop waiting for certainty and start jumping in sloppy instead. Russ shares his late-in-life ADHD diagnosis and how burnout, depression, and the isolation of the pandemic led him to rethink productivity from the inside out. Together, Sarah and Russ unpack why ADHD brains get stuck in planning mode, how perfectionism disguises itself as "research," and why starting imperfectly is often the most compassionate move we can make. This conversation is a grounding reminder that progress doesn't come from flawless systems—it comes from momentum, connection, and designing effort that your nervous system can actually tolerate. In this episode, we explore: Why ADHDers often over-plan instead of starting—and how to interrupt that cycle What "jumping in sloppy" really means (and what it doesn't) How finite effort and timers can reduce anxiety around overwhelming tasks Why quitting is sometimes part of getting started The concept of felt accountability and why other humans make follow-through more likely How community, body doubling, and shared effort reduce shame and isolation Reframing productivity as something we do together, not alone Russ also shares the heart behind his ADHD Big Brother approach—why guidance works better when it feels like support instead of authority, and how small, human-scale systems can help us finally tackle the tasks we've been avoiding. If you've ever told yourself, "I know me—this won't work," this episode gently challenges that belief and offers a more hopeful alternative: start where you are, start imperfectly, and don't do it alone.

In this episode of Adulting with Autism, host April hacks sustainable fitness for neurodivergent young adults with PJ Glassey, Exercise Science grad (1989), X Gym founder (1998), anti-aging/Alzheimer's expert (59 but looks 39), and Brain Type Test creator. PJ's 21-min workout (2x/week = 7 hrs traditional) tones/defines safely without bulking—invented from client experiments/research, now with Xercise App/online training since 2017. Key insights: Gym aversion fix: Quick/safe method (slow reps/holds for full fatigue—e.g., 7-10 sec pushups, 30-90 sec failure); focus/meditation trains PFC (reps like distractions in beginners). Motivation/discipline: 97% NY resolutions fail (unrealistic expectations); prolong via "why" questions (10-40 answers/post reminders); toward/away (e.g., avoid diabetic fate, become strong). Brain-body link: Exercise oxygenates/BDNF "Miracle-Gro" for cells/pathways; anti-aging/Alzheimer's 5 pillars (exercise/nutrition/hydration/sleep/brain training/relationships—hard ones best for PFC). ND application: Hyperfocus/procrastination? Method's focus counters (no TVs/mirrors/music); injury avoidance (controlled/form); burnout prevention (short sessions, patterns become identity). Brain Type Test: Rewires for success (custom habits/motivation); PJ's biohacking (tower running since 1987, Christian principles for business).

Feeling "too much" in ND chaos? In this episode of Adulting with Autism, host April celebrates neurodivergent superpowers with Sara Hartley, late-diagnosed ADHD mom of two ND boys, healthcare executive, certified ADHD/neurodiversity coach, and author of 13-book "Purposefully Me" series (affirmation-based learning for kids on neurodiversity/hard topics like anxiety/bullying/executive functioning). From cathartic shower breakdown to writing diverse characters/glossaries/discussion questions, Sara's Align Parenting Method empowers regulation/acceptance. Key insights: Late ADHD diagnosis (25): Post-college boredom/hyperfocus/procrastination; masking in "even keel" (decision fatigue); Lyme/parenting triggered awareness. ND parenting boys: Meltdowns from unprocessed emotions; empathy over anger (hold space, "two truths true"); affirmations at bedtime ("I am kind/smart/lovable/brave/enough/safe"). Align Method (A-L-I-G-N): Awareness (body cues like tight chest), Listen/Label (emotions), Identify triggers (bad day/sensory), Ground (walk/5-4-3-2-1/object focus/water sip), Nurture (connection/choice/grace). Dopamine hits: Healthy (walks/podcasts) vs. addictive (scrolling/shopping); bedtime vulnerability for processing (impressionable state). Burnout/shame: Yelling/internalized "not enough"; reframe as human (Catholic guilt spirals); experiment small (hi to vendor) for authenticity. Books for kids/young adults: 13 titles (ADHD/autism/anxiety/dyslexia/bullying/school drills); build confidence/less alone (recurring characters/conversations). Advice for authors/creatives: No credentials needed—write voice/purpose; find believer (book coach); trial/error builds momentum.

Internalized negative self-talk trapping ND lives? In this episode of Adulting with Autism, host April unpacks Complex PTSD/ADHD mental health with Karen Dwyer-Tesoriero, NYC/FL psychotherapist (25+ years social work/child welfare/intergenerational trauma/CPTSD expert). Using EMDR/IFS/Polyvagal/somatic therapies, Karen undoes limiting beliefs for authenticity/goals; life coaching for non-NY/FL via TikTok, plus parent support for emotional regulation. Key insights: Negative self-talk: Childhood messages (e.g., "lazy" from ADHD struggles) internalized—higher CPTSD risk in ND (adverse experiences like unmet needs). CPTSD vs. PTSD: Relational/micro-traumas (e.g., single-parent absences/narcissistic abuse) vs. single events (war/accidents); leads to anxiety/depression/avoidance. Polyvagal theory: Bottom-up body focus (window of tolerance/fight-flight-freeze/dorsal shutdown); regulate via sensations (e.g., neutral feet vs. chest tension)—ADHD/autism concrete (EMDR eye movement/tappers). EMDR for ND: Bilateral stimulation desensitizes trauma memories; evolving for autism/ADHD (virtual/no light bar); process emotions concretely ("what happened next?"). Rewriting stories: Narrative/motivational interviewing challenges origins ("is it true? strengths? passions?"); experiment authenticity (small steps like "hi" to vendor). Attachment styles: Healthy (communication/vulnerability); avoidant (infidelity/avoid intimacy); anxious (constant doubt/people-pleasing); disorganized (both)—ND rejection sensitivity amplifies. Addictions/substances: Beyond alcohol/drugs (food/shopping/exercise/secrets); red flags (hiding behaviors); regulate dopamine healthily (breaks/routines). Advocacy/relationships: Therapy fit crucial (ask trainings/referrals); healthy dating (experiment/vulnerability); parents model regulation to minimize messages. For autistic/ADHD young adults navigating independence/trauma, Karen's vibe: "You're not broken—rewrite for worth." Free resources at kdtesoriero.lcsw.net; email coffeewithkaren@gmail.com.

From the absurd (snakes through sunroofs) to the profound (the fear of being unlovable), we're diving into the vivid world of adult anxiety. This episode categorizes our fears into three distinct lanes: practical risks that need a plan, anxiety loops that need a nervous-system reset, and tender wounds that require compassion and community.We explore why "white-knuckling" through phobias doesn't work and how tools like EMDR and exposure therapy can rewire your brain. Whether you need a checklist, a deep breath, or a witness to your story, this framework helps you balance grit with gentleness. Tune in to learn how to turn your "what-ifs" into actionable, brave steps.

High-masking ND grind burning you out? In this episode of Adulting with Autism, host April tackles sustainable success for neurodivergent high-achievers with Garrett Wood, National Board-Certified Health and Wellness Coach/clinical hypnotherapist/executive functioning specialist and founder of Gnosis Therapy. With 18+ years helping masking professionals (autism/ADHD), Garrett's A³ Framework (Assess, Accommodate, Align) bridges nervous-system needs/environment demands—focusing on sensory intelligence/bio-budgets/emotional regulation/core beliefs/attachment/values/executive functioning to end boom-bust cycles. Key insights: High-masking exhaustion: Socialization gaps (hiding "not okay" parts); safe environments reduce friction—authentic self without danger. Sensory intelligence: Preferences/thresholds (too much/little stimulation); interoception (body cues like hunger/anxiety); accommodations (headphones/compression/breaks/sensory backpack). Bio-budgets/time under tension: ND shifts (16-18 hrs masking vs. NT 4-5 hrs); small reps/recovery (car breaks/garden/dust books) prevent overload. Autistic vs. NT burnout: Intensity/scale difference (ND extreme effort); recovery longer (6-7 months vs. quick)—focus well-being (not grit/willpower myth). Hypnotherapy: Self-hypnosis (daydream state for mindset/social/sleep); practice positive experiences (e.g., anxiety scenarios going well). A³ for control: Assess needs (triggers/supports), Accommodate (e.g., oils/masks), Align (values as guardrails); early overload signs (tension/shutdown). Workplace/young adults: Advocate (ROI from inclusion); trial/error (hot/cold days); natural responses (eat/move/sleep) over deadlines. For autistic/ADHD young adults/entrepreneurs in masking fatigue, Garrett's vibe: "Sustainable success through well-being—not expense." Free resources at gnosistherapy.com.

Unexplained chronic pain/illness trapping you in ND chaos? In this episode of Adulting with Autism, host April dives into neuroplastic symptoms—brain-generated conditions from stress/trauma (1 in 6 adults, higher in autism/ADHD)—with Dr. David Clarke, MD (Internal Medicine/Gastroenterology), ATNS President (nonprofit ending pain epidemic), and podcast host "The Story Behind the Symptoms." Treating 7000+ patients, Dr. Clarke's book "They Can't Find Anything Wrong" reveals real symptoms (fibromyalgia/migraines/IBS/long COVID) unresponsive to physical treatments—focus on stress sources for recovery. Key insights: Neuroplastic basics: Brain rewires from stresses (current emotions/childhood adversity/being "different" like ND); no structural cause but real (scans prove circuits change). ND link: Masking/difference adds pressure; symptoms signal distress (e.g., pain only at work triggers). Screening: Free 12-question quiz at symptomatic.me (

Disconnected from your body in ND chaos? In this episode of Adulting with Autism, host April explores quantum human design for neurodivergent reconnection with Dr. Karen Parker, Human Design/Quantum Human Design expert (psychology/holistic health background, founder of Quantum Human Design™). Integrating ancient wisdom/quantum physics, Dr. Parker decodes energetic blueprints for growth—workshops/courses/consults empowering authentic purpose/societal harmony. Key insights: Body disconnection: Epidemic from kindergarten (overstim/shame, "treehouse" numbness); leads to distractions (TV/phone/food) to avoid pain. Micro-trauma: Not just big events—shaming needs (e.g., bathroom denial) teaches "unsafe to be me"; compounds to burnout (body refuses mask). Redefine value: Shift from material/numerical (money/size) to preciousness (once-in-lifetime cosmic event)—nurture self like royal gems. Quantum human design: High-frequency language rewires stories (photon storms/neurotransmitters); hero's journey (creative writing/dance) upgrades victim to victor, boosts immunity/creativity. Healing steps: Compassion without judgment ("ready for change"); rest/outdoors/body listening; frequency physics (high vibe pulls others up—influential/authentic living). ND application: Burnout from masking (exhaustion trying to fit); safe embodiment for empaths/sensitives—rewrite low-frequency trauma narratives. For autistic/ADHD in overwhelm/isolation, Dr. Parker's blueprint: "Preciousness heals—get in body, rewrite story."

Feeling stuck in ND corporate grind or creative chaos? In this episode of Adulting with Autism, host April chats getting unstuck for neurodivergent entrepreneurs with Murielle Ungricht, autistic business coach (25 years experience, founded/sold businesses, certified master career coach). Late-diagnosed autistic, TEDx speaker/author of "Get Unstuck!" (self-help for procrastination/overthinking), and founder/CEO of Nuumani.com (AI-human coaching platform for accessible support), Murielle mentors "unconventional" creatives/ND folks to trade fear for joy—focusing on entrepreneurship/productivity/mental health/trauma/leadership/feminism. Key insights: Late diagnosis journey: From feeling "wrong" to embracing gifts (detail-oriented/resilient routines); measure personal wins, not NT standards. Unstuck formula: Recognize autistic strengths (structure/habits) for success; trial/error to build sustainable systems (e.g., batching content to avoid overwhelm). Perfectionism/self-sabotage: Rewire negative voice (mindfulness: "Is it true? What if opposite?"); drop bars gradually—produce "good enough" without procrastination. AI coaching (Nuumani): Democratizes access (free sessions/human network); combines her tech/coaching background for ND-friendly tools. Young autistics: Find formula for world not built for you—expose to new safely, forgive meltdowns, seek support; "so what?" mindset for fearless living. Advice: Don't worry—start now; connect dots with strengths (big picture + detail); consistency over blueprints (AI helps, but human touch essential). For autistic/ADHD young adults/entrepreneurs, Murielle's vibe: "Be unreasonable for amazing life—autism isn't barrier, it's superpower."

Exhausted from ND grind overload? In this episode of Adulting with Autism, host April explores mindful energy for neurodivergent burnout with Chris Vasiliadis, former systems engineer/instructional designer/Director of Performance Improvement turned burnout buster/health coach (18 years). MS diagnosis (2006) sparked his shift to energizing routines—Qigong/MBSR/3R rescue—focusing on sustainable thriving without chronic exhaustion, aligning actions/values for whole-hearted well-being. Key insights: MS journey: Year of "lab rat" tests (gluten sensitivity/naps), conscious energy management (Qigong for meridians). Mindful energy: Purposeful present attention without judgment (grounding/foot sensations, white space on calendar). Routines for dysfunction/overwhelm: Pause/reground (breathe/stretch/outdoor panoramic views), 16-90 min breaks (not rewards—necessities). Aligning actions/values: Self-compassion over perfectionism (grace for pace, delegate/delay to-dos). Book "Ignition": Self-coach burnout-proof (energy list/3R: remove/reduce/respond drains; bake energizers first). Unpredictable life: Expect chaos (reground: "What's next wise choice?"), community for support (no stagnation—daily joy notes). Thriving normal: Sane pace (role models of measured living), human beings not doings (buffers/transitions). For autistic/ADHD young adults in executive dysfunction/isolation, Chris's systems/patterns: "Honor humanness—small steps sustain." Free resources at prioritywellness.com.

Barriers in education/work got you down as an ND young adult? In this episode of Adulting with Autism, host April chats accessible design for neurodivergent with Rebecca Prejean, CEO/Founder of E.B. Graphics and Consulting—creating inclusive multimedia (videos/graphics/animations/e-learnings/VR/AR) via UDL/WCAG for corporations/higher ed/nonprofits. As mom to a son with severe hydrocephalus/autism (defied "won't walk/talk" prognosis), Rebecca fights perceptions, boosting revenue/productivity/engagement through accessible experiences for ADHD/autism/dyslexia/special needs. Key insights: Business start: Freelance post-layoff (no degree needed—hard work/upskilling/AI for ideas), networking muscle (volunteer to paid). Skills honing: Try all (Google/Udemy/creators), open to tech (AI ideation, not replacement); workshops/monthly for sharpness. Imposter/authentic: Fight through (clients want you, not mask); cancel mismatches—resilience from discomfort (homeless/abuse led to success). No shortcuts: 10x harder than 9-5; embrace failure/discomfort for longevity (most podcasts/creators fail—work ethic wins). Content creation: Custom/retrofit (color changes/screen readers/focus order); companion guides/animations for cognitive ease. Higher ed changes: Perception shift (not "defiant"—need clear instructions/accommodations); meet where they are. Advice: Freelance side-hustle first; upskill relentlessly (e.g., UCLA extensions); authentic self attracts right clients. For autistic/ADHD young adults eyeing creative/business paths, Rebecca's story: "Work hard, be open—no paper needed." Launching "The Quirk Factory" podcast next week—follow on LinkedIn/email.
