Massive Fraud Allegations (WATCH NICK's VIDEO HERE!) Minnesota has spent $18 billion on Medicaid over several years, with up to $9 billion allegedly lost to fraud. Fraud reportedly involves fake daycare centers and autism centers receiving millions in state funds without providing services or having children present. Example: Facilities licensed for dozens of children but found empty, with windows blacked out and doors locked. Political Corruption Democratic politicians, including Governor Tim Walz and Attorney General Keith Ellison, ignored or enabled the fraud. Stolen funds were used to influence elections and fund campaigns. We bring up Ilhan Omar and have questions about her financial gains. Investigative Work by Nick Shirley A 23-year-old YouTuber, Nick Shirley, conducted undercover investigations, visiting daycare and autism centers, documenting the absence of children, and exposing suspicious operations. His video reportedly went viral, reaching over 90 million views. Media Criticism Strong criticism of mainstream (called “Corporate”) media for allegedly ignoring the story. Praise for independent investigative journalism. Security and Confrontations Confrontations with individuals at the centers, some becoming hostile. Police involvement when Shirley attempted to gather information at healthcare offices. Financial Scale Examples of payments: individual centers receiving $1–$3 million annually. Autism-related Medicaid payments allegedly skyrocketed from $1.3 million in 2017 to $228 million in 2024. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Leland Vittert, American journalist and anchor for NewsNation, joins Allie to discuss his book "Born Lucky: A Dedicated Father, a Grateful Son, and My Journey with Autism." Through the interview, Leland discusses his secret diagnoses with autism as a child while his parents rejected accommodations and taught him to conquer adversity head-on. From relentless bullying throughout school to Middle East war zones and network news, Leland credits his dad's “adapt to the world” philosophy for his success. Heart-wrenching, hope-filled stories prove that hardship forges character, tough parental love yields resilient adults, and God redeems every struggle.

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. For autistic/ADHD young adults/parents, Sara's vibe: "Uniqueness is strength—affirm/align to shine." Free Align Guide at sarahlewishartley.com; Instagram @sarahlewishartley (tips/books).

This is an audio version of a white broad series covering inhibition/thalamic reticular nucleus. See the video to follow along.This episode provides a detailed exploration of the thalamic reticular nucleus (TRN), the inhibitory "shell" surrounding the thalamus that acts as a sensory gate in the brain. Drawing on prior episodes, it explains how abnormalities in TRN development—linked to factors like Sonic Hedgehog signaling knockouts, reduced parvalbumin interneurons, and genes such as CNTNAP2—contribute to the excitation-inhibition imbalance central to autism. The TRN regulates sensory input access (visual, auditory, somatosensory), attention modulation, sleep-wake cycles, and overload protection; in autism, its dysfunction leads to sensory overload, hyperactivity, repetitive behaviors, and social challenges, while offering strengths like accelerated learning, intense focus, and enhanced visual thinking due to heightened inner-directed processing.83: Thalamic Reticular Nucleus (TRN), Sensory Gating & Autism https://youtu.be/cjwbog7Rk4c?si=R3Nq3Hs5A0M_7Vts 82: Sonic Hedgehog & Inhibitory Neurons in Autism https://youtu.be/Oee4L7Vsj4E?si=rG2T8R9AIYAnDBw7 76: Parvalbumin Interneurons & the Autistic Phenotype https://youtu.be/PBHVssvoQkM?si=saFvjVx9Bjq610pk Also see the Visual Thinking episodes, but White Broad Series coming to cover those in more detail.Daylight Computer Company, use "autism" for $50 off at https://buy.daylightcomputer.com/autismChroma Light Devices, use "autism" for 10% discount at https://getchroma.co/?ref=autismFig Tree Christian Golf Apparel & Accessories, use "autism" for 10% discount at https://figtreegolf.com/?ref=autismCognity AI for Autistic Social Skills, use "autism" for 10% discount at https://thecognity.com00:00 Introduction, Episode Recap, TRN Overview02:45 TRN Anatomy Drawing, Thalamus Structure and Shell05:18 Sonic Hedgehog Role, Knockout Models in Development10:48 Cell Types in TRN, Parvalbumin vs Somatostatin Functions15:19 TRN Sectors, Sensory Inputs (Visual/Auditory/Somatosensory) Access20:37 Cortical Connections, Layer 6 Feedback and Crosstalk25:04 Mini-Columns Recap, Thalamus to Layer 4 Processing29:56 Prefrontal Cortex Mapping, Adaptive Responses Role34:22 TRN Functions: Attention Modulation, Sleep-Wake Regulation36:22 CNTNAP2 Discussion, Knockout Phenotypes (Hyperactivity, Seizures)38:45 Strengths/Weaknesses: Accelerated Learning, Visual Thinking Benefits42:18 Overload Protection, Hyperactivity, Social/Repetitive Challenges46:30 Conclusion, Autism as "Self," Inner-Directed ProcessingX: https://x.com/rps47586YT: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGxEzLKXkjppo3nqmpXpzuAemail: info.fromthespectrum@gmail.com

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.

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.

How Understanding Autism Biology Can Help Children Thrive Autism Is Not One Thing: Why So Many Children Struggle — And Why It's Not “Just Autism” For decades, autism has been treated as a one-size-fits-all label. But parents everywhere are starting to notice something that traditional models have missed: Not every autistic child struggles for the same reasons — and many challenges aren't “autism,” they're biology. New research confirms this intuitive truth. Scientists are now identifying multiple autism subtypes, shaped by different biological pathways such as immune function, gut health, metabolism, detoxification, and sensory processing. This shift marks a turning point away from the idea that autism equals a fixed set of symptoms — and toward understanding each child's unique neurological and biological profile. And that's exactly where powerful breakthroughs happen. Autism vs. the Challenges That Come With It Let's be clear from the start: Autism itself is not a disease. Autism is a different neurotype — a unique way of communicating, processing the world, and experiencing life. But the challenges many autistic individuals face are not personality traits. They're not “who the child is.” They are biological stressors layered on top of their neurodivergence — stressors that can be reduced, supported, and improved. These may include: chronic inflammation gut dysbiosis nutrient depletion impaired detox pathways mitochondrial or energy-production issues hormonal imbalance persistent immune activation environmental toxins food sensitivities (gluten, dairy, oxalates, salicylates, phenols, histamines)...

We are away for Christmas, so this is a repeat of a previous episode. In September, President Trump and the U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. held a press conference in which they made extraordinary new claims about autism. They suggested a potential link between the use of Tylenol during pregnancy and the development of autism. They also advocated spacing out childhood vaccinations. The two men's interest in the link between vaccines and autism goes back decades but these claims did not originate in the US. They trace back to the UK in 1998, when disgraced former doctor Andrew Wakefield first published his now-debunked theory linking MMR vaccines to autism cases in children. The science journalist Adam Rutherford explains to the Global Story how the Wakefield vaccine conspiracy became the biggest medical disinformation disaster in recent history, and how these ideas found fertile ground in the Trump administration.

Functional Communication Training can change everything when behavior is really communication and we take the time to listen.In this reprise episode, I'm revisiting one of our most popular conversations of the year, all about Functional Communication Training and how to get started in a way that is practical, ethical, and truly supportive for students. I hear so many questions about what to do when students are struggling to express their needs and emotions and how to move beyond problem behavior into meaningful communication.

Victoria Lenormand is a former police detective turned holistic coach, Reiki master, and passionate advocate for alternative education and social justice. With a 28-year career in public service behind her, Victoria's lens is both compassionate and sharp: she's witnessed firsthand how institutions can sometimes fail those they claim to serve. Her journey took a transformative turn when her youngest son's autism diagnosis revealed the flaws in rigid educational and medical systems. Choosing to home educate, she and her family embraced a life of flexibility, healing, and empowerment—living in a motorhome before settling in Scotland and exploring a more intuitive way of living. Her family's transformation, sparked by a combination of diet, environment, and deep listening, revealed the healing power of choice and the cost of ignoring it.Today, through Gemini Directions, Victoria now works with families and individuals who feel stuck inside systems not made for them. Her work draws on training in wellness coaching, trauma-informed care, and energy work—but more than anything, it's shaped by real-world experience: managing crisis with calm, asking better questions, making space when the default is to push through. Victoria speaks to parents at breaking point, professionals navigating burnout, and educators or policymakers open to doing things differently. Her conversations centre around those day-to-day quiet acts of courage: advocating for yourself, questioning “normal,” and moving toward something slower, more responsive, and often more effective.Takeaways:The value of a child is often revealed in the challenges they face, not just in their successes.When traditional education fails to meet a child's needs, parents must explore alternative educational paths.Creating a supportive community is essential for families navigating the complexities of education and special needs.Empowering children to take charge of their own learning fosters autonomy and encourages a love for education.Resilience is cultivated through overcoming challenges and learning to adapt in the face of adversity.The holistic approach to education recognizes the interconnectedness of emotional, physical, and academic well-being.Chapters:00:20 - Choosing to Withdraw: A New Direction06:20 - The Journey of Learning and Discovery08:23 - The Journey of Learning and Inclusion18:51 - Navigating Educational Change22:49 - Rethinking Education: Navigating New Possibilities28:20 - The Journey of Personalization in Learning34:45 - Navigating Educational Change and Personal Growth40:01 - The Importance of Community Support in Challenging Times42:38 - The Power of Resilience and Community

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 (

"But some of the things that I've asked myself that I didn't put in this book were more about my personal purpose, and the reason why I didn't put it in the book is because I wanted the book to be a guide for other people to figure out they're supposed to live or how they're supposed to heal or what their purpose is supposed to be. Rather, I want them to come to their own conclusion on their own", says T Jamaica Pogue. T returns to Autism Stories her workbook to help anyone looking to end cycles of generational dysfunction.

We've come a long way in understanding how neurodivergence expresses itself in kids, compared to when I became a new mom. But even now, an Autism diagnosis can feel like some of the most dreaded words imaginable to a parent.Can you fathom what it was like for parents in the 1980s?Leland Vittert can. And even though his parents chose not to share his diagnosis with him until his early 20's, he now knows the whole story of what they went through for him.Leland is a successful journalist with his own nightly news show. But when he was a kid, Leland struggled to relate to his classmates. He was bullied by other kids, and at times, by teachers as well. After Leland was diagnosed with Autism, (now considered level 1, formerly known as Aspergers), his father made it his mission to help Leland learn the skills he'd need to function in a world that would not understand or mold to his differences.Leland tells the whole inspiring story in his new book Born Lucky: A Dedicated Father, A Grateful Son, and My Journey with Autism. He's here to share his gratitude to his dad, and offer hope to parents who are anxious about how to best support their neurodivergent kids.Something clicked while listening?We'd love to talk with you if you want to dig deeper into your family's specific situation.

Send us a textA blog that almost stalled. A book that took shape anyway. And a voice that keeps getting louder. We sit down with Michael, an autistic author from Ontario, to trace how “Michaelism: My POV on Life with Autism” went from idea to self-published reality—and why persistence beat perfection at every turn.Michael opens up about the early days when the word autism felt abstract, while picture-based learning made the world click. That contrast sets the tone for an honest look at communication, school, and the moments that defy low expectations—like a cherished trip to Ottawa and friendships that still carry into his weekly routine. We unpack the power of special interests, from J-pop and K-pop to EDM and dance, and reframe them not as obsessions but as engines for joy, structure, and community. If you're searching for real stories about autism acceptance, sensory choices, and everyday advocacy, this conversation meets you where you are.We also dive into the nuts and bolts of self-publishing with IngramSpark, why Michael chose that path, and how book signings and autism conferences in Toronto helped him connect with readers. He walks through key themes from his book—anxiety, emotions, making friends, money and math, communication, volunteering—and shows how each chapter anchors practical skills in lived experience. Through family support, grief, and growth, Michael models what it looks like to claim identity, wear it proudly, and keep moving forward with compassion.Hit play to meet a writer who leads with heart and clarity.

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."

An area of great interest is understanding the experience of highly sensitive people, also known as empaths. There are many overlapping characteristics of highly sensitive people with individuals who have neurodivergent profiles (with or without formal diagnoses). Dr. Judith Orloff is a recognized expert in this area and Barry, Dave and Judith discuss the best ways to understand and support empaths, as well as her new book for children, The Highly Sensitive Rabbit.Find out more on our website!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

If you've ever been told you or your child has anxiety, ADHD, or both—but it never fully explained what was actually happening—this conversation will feel like a breath of fresh air.In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Giancarlo Licata, director of Vital Brain Health, to unpack what's really going on in the brain beneath these labels—and why understanding how the brain is firing matters more than the diagnosis itself.We talk about anxiety, attention, and regulation through a neuroscience lens that's nuanced, practical, and deeply validating for parents and high-achieving adults alike.In this episode, we're diving into:Why “anxiety” and “ADHD” are often too blunt to be helpful.A powerful way to understand rumination, fear, and fast processing—and how inherited traits, stress, and trauma can mix and match to drive anxiety and overwhelm.The order of operations your brain actually needs.The difference between calming your nervous system in the moment and actually lowering your baseline over time—and why both matter if you want lasting change.What brain mapping and neurofeedback can reveal and rewireIf you've ever felt like you're throwing coping tools at a nervous system that's already maxed out—or wondering why nothing seems to stick—this episode will help you see the bigger picture with clarity and compassion.
