Ep. 26 Late to the Label: What It Means to Be a Black Woman Diagnosed with Autism
Manage episode 514939452 series 3608157
This one’s for the Black women who’ve spent a lifetime feeling out of sync, only to discover—maybe much later than expected—that there’s a name for it.
In this episode, join us for a powerful conversation with a guest who, after years of navigating life’s challenges, finally received an autism diagnosis as an adult Black woman. We dig into what it’s like to grow up feeling different, the relief and complexity of finally having answers, and the unique journey of unmasking in a world that often overlooks Black women’s experiences. Her story is honest, nuanced, and a reminder that it’s never too late to understand yourself more deeply.
