Nat Smith is a vulnerability coach, playwright, and connection witch. They're also my sibling, so you'll hear stories about our childhood.Nat has known they're ADHD for years, and only recently has been exploring the label autistic. One reason it's been a slow realization: they don't experience it as a disorder and don't need a lot of external support day-to-day.Because of that experience, we also touch on the "levels" of autism currently being given in diagnosis. Many Level 1 folks are never diagnosed. And while I would probably be labeled Level 1, I'm actually more Level 2... I've just managed to have family and partners meet my daily needs.Nat's perspective is incredibly helpful for anyone who wonders what autism looks like when it's NOT an obviously disabling condition. This is where the word "Neurotype" is so useful!Disclaimer: And I would hope it goes without saying... every autistic person is different and has their own experience! Many if not most autistic people (and especially those who receive an official diagnosis) do experience autism as a disability for many reasons.Nat's experience does not at all detract from that! AND I feel it's important for more autistic people to be "out," even if they have a less common presentation.

This week I chat with Nat Smith, who is a creativity and connection coach, and we dive into the Enneagram! After I got my divorce, I realized that I didn't know much about who I was. The Enneagram was such a helpful tool in helping me to understand more about myself and why I do what I do. It gave me more of an empathetic look at who I am and a more empathetic understanding of others and their personalities. Nat explores each Enneagram number and lends so much info about how the Enneagram came to be and how we can use it in our lives! Do you know your enneagram number?

This Presidential Administration has been marked by a seemingly endless stream of whistleblowers who bravely risk their own careers to call out the waste, fraud, and abuse of power that they see as endemic to this president. Pat sits down with Nat Smith, a Whistleblower Protection attorney, to learn the ins and outs of whistleblowing, the types of retaliation that whistleblowers face, and the laws that are in place to protect the brave men and women who blow the whistle in a desperate attempt to shed light on corruption that they feel endangers our democracy. Learn why whistleblowers make our government better and more efficient. Pat, Dan, and Carlos also discuss the recent death of RGB and what another Trump Supreme Court pick could mean for our country. #Whistleblowers, #Corruption, #GovernmentAccountability --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/trickledownsocialism/support
