Today, I was presenting online about #neurodiversity in the workplace when sensory issues started causing cognitive issues and my speech slowed (Hi! I’m #autisfic! 👋) My #neurotypical colleague was able to present my slides until I could speak. That’s neurodiversity in action!

The @CDCgov revises autism rates in children age 8 from 1-in-44 to 1-in-36 (based on 2020 data). Hooray for narrowing diagnostic gaps. Imagine if more people understood who they were at earlier ages. “Nothing in life is to be feared; it is only to be understood,” - #MarieCurie
