083 - Debriefing Autism Acceptance Month with Scott Frasard

How are you feeling after April’s Autism Acceptance Month as an Autistic? Join me and my amazing co-host Scott Frasard on Wednesday, May 25th at 2pm Eastern US for some community time to visit, share and do an April Debrief together as a community.  We know that April can be challenging but it can also hold some amazing successes and we want to hold space for you to process, share and find support, celebration and encouragement together with us.   Register Here: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZ0udOqopz8jH9YPilocElJAqX0uK76GlHCH  Last year Scott and I were both emotionally exhausted after seeking to be heard last April.  Many of you shared similar feelings and experiences with me after recovering from the emotional and mental exhaustion of last April’s Autism Acceptance events.  This year we want to debrief and talk about how April went, how we are feeling, what we experienced, what conversations we had and where we want to go from here. This year has been a bit different for many of us and Scott and I want to share some of the experiences, conversations, new insights and awareness we’ve had and how we both tried new models and approaches which resulted in us feeling pretty amazing on April 30th.
