I was interviewed on the Uniquely Human Podcast (listen here) which aired on July 3, 2026. The podcast is ranked #1 in neurodiversity, autism, ADHD, psychiatry, and disability by Goodpods, I had a lot of fun talking with the hosts  Barry Prizant, Ph.D., CCC-SLP, CCC-SLP, and Dave Finch.

​Here is the transcript

We covered these topics

➡️ How my late diagnosis of autism helped me understand why I often felt like a banana slug in the Mojave Desert, lacking the necessary evolutionary adaptations.

➡️ The experience of being pathologically genuine, which can serve as both a superpower and kryptonite.

➡️ The significance of being an autistic empath and the impact of authenticity and caring in a college classroom.

➡️ Insights into my book project, Pathologically Genuine.

➡️ The role of therapy dogs and the lessons I've learned about neurodiversity through partnership with my therapy dog, Brea.

➡️ My surprise at discovering that I can come across as narcissistic, which includes a funny story of the word "ostrich."

It's a fun conversation.
