Aradia, Cheryl, and Patrice talk about the experience of growing up as undiagnosed autistic women, and the ways in which that has informed how we negotiate life. We touch on generations of missed girls, hobbies that were palatable, accessing anger, masking in the transition into adulthood, what defines a standard, shame, empathy, and so much more.Work with us by scheduling at the links below:Aradia: [coming soon]Cheryl: https://cherylrettig.ca Patrice: https://www.patriceriley.comMatthew: https://www.theautisticcoach.com Autistic Peer Support Coaching Collective: https://www.autisticcoaches.comTheme music: Vinyl Couch - Blue Dot Sessions A Fox And Raven Media productionCheck out other FARM podcastsBlack Girl From Eugene: https://www.spreaker.com/show/black-girl-from-eugene Used2Sew: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/used2sew--6285838 Wheel of Time Spoilers: https://www.spreaker.com/show/wot-spoilers-podcast
