  • Sensitive, warm and informed

    I found this pod while browsing and have listened to a few episodes now. Kristen is a great host and a thorough researcher. It is a huge relief to listen to such a considered show rather than the ongoing trend for clickbait headlines. It’s a really useful show and I’m so glad I found it. Thank you Kristen and well done!

  • Great resource and variety for late diagnosed ASD

    I came into this podcast through searching for 'adult autism' since I was recently diagnosed at age 43.

    What I discovered through listening to all of the podcasts now is a very wonderful host Kristen Hovet who spends plenty of time researching and sharing her discoveries. She also shares her own experiences and has numerous guests whose stories have also been very beneficial for me and my new journey.

    Extra shoutout to the music, and Kristen's calm, clear and soothing voice / delivery.

  • Amazingly helpful!

    Kristen shares so much information in a way that is easy to understand and done in a very interesting way. I was diagnosed autistic at just prior to my 50th birthday. There is so much that I am learning about myself, and Kristen makes it that much easier. Awesome podcast!
