For a lot of us, the support just stops. You finish high school and the programs end, the services end, and nobody hands you a replacement. Your social life quietly becomes your own problem to solve.Jamie Pastrano said something in this conversation I have not stopped thinking about. There is no milestone for loneliness. You get one for a first job, a first apartment, riding the train alone. There is not one for having somebody to call on a Tuesday night. And if nobody measures it, nobody plans for it.Jamie is a licensed social worker and a peer certified provider, and a mom. She watched her autistic son age into that gap and could not find him a solution. Brittany Moser is a former teacher with a master's degree in autism studies. Rebecca Matchett, who everybody calls Becky, spent two decades in fashion, co-founded Alison Olivia, and holds a patent in women's sizing. Together they built Synchrony, a social app made specifically for neurodivergent adults who want to make real friends. Not adapted from something else. Built from the ground up for us.The part that surprised me is the way you get in. You upload an ID, and somebody who knows you vouches for you. I assumed that would push people away. They told me the opposite. Wide open platforms are exactly what failed this community, and those extra steps are what finally let people stop performing once they are inside.We also talk about masking and what it does to your body, what happens when the diagnosis came late or never came at all, and how to bring something like this up with someone you love without it landing badly. And we go straight at the AI question, because there is an optional coach in the app named Jesse.Synchrony, the app and the download links: https://joinsynchrony.comGo deeper in the ADHD Vibers Subscriber Hub.Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/thevibewithkyFacebook Subscriptions: https://www.facebook.com/thevibewithky/subscribe/The Real Ones, five dollars a month, gets you the ADHD Deep Dive Library and Reverse the Mic, where my guests flip the script and interview me.

A man came in from three hours of surfing and asked his partner if she was angry at him. She said no. Why would I be angry? You love surfing. He only asked because the woman he dated before her used to yell at him every single time he went.That story stopped Ky cold, and it is the heart of this conversation.A lot of us were trained to read somebody needing space as the beginning of the end. Your partner goes quiet. They want a night alone. And your brain has already written the breakup speech.Simone Milasas is an author and a relationship facilitator from Australia. She co-wrote Relationship. Are You Sure You Want One?, wrote Joy of Business and Getting Out of Debt Joyfully, and hosts The Choice, Change & Action Podcast. She has spent years in rooms full of people asking her how to fix their relationships, and her answer is almost never the one they showed up for.Her position is that relationships do not fail from bad communication. They fail from needs, expectations, and projections nobody ever said out loud.Ky and Simone get into the five elements of intimacy, trust, honor, allowance, vulnerability and gratitude, and why you have to give all five to yourself before you can hand them to anyone else. They talk about the myth of "the one" and how it keeps people stuck. A concept she teaches called creationship. Why she keeps a second bathroom on purpose. And the money conversation she used to book a restaurant table for four to have.The line that keeps sitting with Ky: when she needs an hour alone, it is not against him, it is for her.Heads up, there is some language in this one.MORE FROM SIMONE MILASASHer podcast, The Choice, Change & Action Podcast:https://podcasts.apple.com/za/podcast/the-choice-change-action-podcast/id1512950259Her website:https://www.simonemilasas.com/aboutWANT MORE?Everything lives at TheVibeWithKy.com.

Once you tell yourself the nearly impossible is possible and you do the work to make it happen, you stop focusing on what's possible.    So, you might turn to certain things that show you figured out the impossible.    For me, I didn't really have the best role models growing up, but I became one of those people.     I bought McLaren's and Lambos.  I've had damn near every kind you can imagine.    Flew everywhere on private jets.    And what I realized was that isn't the real me.     Proof came when the last McLaren (720) I owned didn't get driven but maybe 3 times the last 6 months I owned it, I knew I didn't need it.    It did not show proof of my success.    My kids starting asking me more about going to the Ranch and that's when I leaned in and saw the proof of what I needed to see.    I've been pouring into that more than anything........   My proof of success is in spending time with my kids......   And that's a huge success.    About the ReWire Podcast   The ReWire Podcast with Ryan Stewman – Dive into powerful insights as Ryan Stewman, the HardCore Closer, breaks down mental barriers and shares actionable steps to rewire your thoughts.

Skateboarding has a way of turning random people into lifelong crew, and Episode 55 is basically proof. We're at the table with Dave Libhart (True East Brand and True East Construction) and Travis and Devin Murtiff (Ride On Concrete) to talk about where we came from, what we're building now, and what we refuse to let skateboarding become. We get into first boards, early sessions, Kona and Monument memories, and the local names and moments that still define what “core” feels like in real life.Then we zoom in on the work: concrete, skate obstacles, and the new changes happening at Kona. Travis and Devin break down what it takes to pour features that actually skate well, while Dave explains how True East Brand grew from a construction logo into a skateboarding-focused apparel brand that gives back to DIY skateparks and community projects. If you're searching for skatepark construction stories, DIY skateboarding culture, or brands that reinvest in the scene, this one hits home.We also get honest about modern skateboarding: Instagram clips replacing full skate videos, the Olympics effect, and the rise of “skate coaches” for families who didn't grow up around the culture. Plus, we do what we do and spiral into “play stupid games, win stupid prizes” before coming back around to travel, building abroad, and why Japan left such a mark. Subscribe, share this with your skate group chat, and leave a review, then tell us: is skateboarding a sport, a game, or something else entirely?

This week on The Sidebar Podcast, Leise Winny and Royce ask a simple question with complicated answers:Who are the real ones anymore?The episode opens with global politics, internet culture, and identity all colliding at once. From conversations around political corruption and the optics of the Trump–China trip, to asking whether Drake is actually back, the hosts break down how performance, branding, and perception shape modern culture.Things quickly spiral into classic Sidebar territory with a hilarious but painfully real conversation about Black men on vacation attire, bigger men at the beach or pool, and why some people transform into yacht influencers the second they leave the country.The hosts also tackle a growing cultural frustration:Can we stop inviting everybody to the proverbial Black picnic?The conversation dives into “honorary Black people,” cultural boundaries, identity, and why some communities struggle to protect spaces without feeling guilty about it.Royce leads the second segment with one of the episode's deepest conversations:“Vulnerability today is harder than sex.”In a world driven by hookup culture, attraction often starts and ends with appearances. The hosts unpack emotional unavailability, surface-level dating, and the idea that some people are beautiful physically but impossible to truly connect with emotionally — like their personality is behind a paywall.Leise shifts the conversation into a broader social critique:Why do we victim-blame before we critique society itself?Using viral stories and public reactions, the discussion explores the “fast girl” narrative, public shame, and society's tendency to punish individuals while ignoring the systems that shape behavior in the first place.Royce then zooms out philosophically with a conversation about belief:“Adults call it belief because imagination is for kids.”From religion and manifestation to conspiracy theories and dating expectations, the hosts unpack how adults build entire identities around things they choose to believe — whether those beliefs are healthy, comforting, or dangerous.Leise closes the episode with a simple but powerful reminder:“It's OK to be Black.”The final segment reflects on identity, self-acceptance, cultural pride, and the pressure many Black people feel to constantly explain themselves, soften themselves, or make others comfortable.Funny, layered, chaotic, and honest — The Real Ones is about authenticity in a world built on performance.Political corruption & the Trump–China tripIs Drake back?Black men on vacation culture“Honorary Black people” discourseVulnerability Today Is Harder Than SexHookup culture & emotional disconnectAttraction vs emotional intimacyPaying to “download” personalityVictim-Blaming & SocietyThe “fast girl” narrativeViral outrage & public judgmentSystems vs individualsBelief vs RealityReligion, manifestation & conspiracy cultureWhy adults cling to belief systemsIt's OK to Be BlackIdentity & authenticityCultural pride & self-acceptance
