In this important episode, we take a deep dive into Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD)—a condition that frequently overlaps with autism spectrum disorder but is often misunderstood or overlooked. Dan, who lives with autism, ADHD, and OCD, breaks down the key things every autistic adult, caregiver, or ally should know about SPD and how it impacts daily life.

From struggling with certain sounds, lights, and textures to feeling overstimulated or under-stimulated, sensory processing challenges can affect everything from communication to focus to mental health. This episode offers practical insight and sensory-friendly strategies for navigating the world with more comfort and confidence.

  • Common signs of sensory sensitivities in autistic adults

  • The difference between sensory seeking and sensory avoiding

  • Real-world tips to manage sensory overload
