In this episode, I have a heartfelt conversation with Kelsey about Autistic burnout—a topic that is often overlooked but profoundly affects many in the neurodivergent community. Kelsey shares from her own personal experiences with burnout, shedding light on what it looks like and how it can impact every aspect of life. We also dive into practical strategies for managing burnout, including Kelsey’s innovative product, the Calm Crate—a thoughtfully designed toolkit to help people when they’re feeling dysregulated or overwhelmed. Kelsey graciously opens up about her journey and the realities of living with burnout, offering valuable insight into how others can better understand and support those going through similar experiences. This episode is an honest and inspiring conversation about self-care, resilience, and the importance of understanding burnout from a neurodivergent perspective.
