- 12 minutes 42 seconds7 Signs of Asperger's in Adults YOU Need To Spot
Have you spent years feeling different without knowing why? In this episode, we explore seven signs of Asperger’s in adults that may prompt you to learn more about autism.
We look at experiences such as sensory sensitivity, social communication differences, strong interests, routines, and masking. These traits can show up in different ways, and recognising yourself in a list cannot confirm an autism diagnosis. It can, however, help you find words for your experiences and decide whether you want to explore an adult autism assessment.
Asperger’s syndrome is an older diagnostic term that many people still use. Today, it is included within autism spectrum disorder. Whether you’re newly exploring autism or supporting someone who is, this episode offers a friendly place to start.

2 October 2026, 11:53 am - 7 minutes 56 secondsAutism Is Not A Disability?
Is autism a disability? It’s a question that can bring up strong feelings, especially when you’re an autistic adult trying to explain both your strengths and the support you need.
In this episode, we unpack the title and explore why people describe autism in different ways. Some autistic people identify as disabled. Others feel that the barriers around them cause many of their difficulties. Both experiences deserve to be heard. We also talk about why recognising autistic strengths should never mean dismissing sensory overload, communication differences, burnout, or the need for support.
Whether you’ve recently received an adult autism diagnosis, still use the term Asperger’s syndrome, or want to understand autism and disability better, join the conversation and decide what language feels right for you.

1 October 2026, 11:49 am - 3 minutes 41 secondsAutism and Eating Disorders in Girls
Why can eating become difficult for some autistic girls? Food textures, smells, routines, anxiety, and the pressure of eating around other people can all play a part. In this episode, we explore the connection between autism and eating difficulties, and why it matters to listen to a girl’s experience without judgement. Autism Central
We also discuss why eating difficulties deserve careful attention. Sensory food aversions do not automatically mean someone has an eating disorder, but conditions such as ARFID can affect autistic people. If you’re concerned about a child’s eating, speak with a healthcare professional who understands both autism and eating disorders. Autism Central
Whether you’re an autistic adult reflecting on your childhood, a parent, or someone searching for information about Asperger’s syndrome and eating disorders, this episode offers a supportive starting point.

Autism Sensory Survival for Social Events
Parties, family gatherings, and busy events can bring a lot of noise, bright lights, unfamiliar food, and social pressure. If you’re autistic, managing all of that at once can be exhausting.
In this episode, we talk about sensory overload at social events and practical ways to make them more manageable. That could mean checking the venue beforehand, bringing headphones, planning a quiet break, or deciding how long you want to stay. We also discuss how to tell someone what you need without feeling you have to explain every detail.
Whether you’re a newly diagnosed autistic adult, looking into Asperger’s syndrome and sensory sensitivity, or supporting someone who finds social events difficult, this episode offers ideas you can adapt to your needs.

30 September 2026, 11:40 am - 7 minutes 39 secondsAutism Diagnosis - Why Some People DON’T Want One
Why might someone recognise autistic traits in themselves but decide against seeking a formal autism diagnosis? In this episode, we explore reasons an adult may feel unsure, from long waiting lists and assessment costs to concerns about stigma, privacy, or what a diagnosis might change.
We also talk about why other people choose to pursue an adult autism assessment. A diagnosis may help them understand their experiences, explain their support needs, or ask for adjustments. There is no single decision that fits everyone, and you deserve space to consider what would help you.
If you have been searching for Asperger’s syndrome symptoms in adults, exploring a late autism diagnosis, or wondering whether to seek an assessment, this conversation is for you. “Asperger’s syndrome” is an older term that many people still use; it is now included under autism spectrum disorder.

29 September 2026, 11:36 am - 8 minutes 16 secondsAutism Meltdown vs Panic Attack (ESSENTIAL INFORMATION)
An autism meltdown and a panic attack can both feel overwhelming, but they are not always the same experience. In this episode, we explore how they may differ, what can happen when sensory input or stress builds up, and why understanding the cause can help you choose the right support.
We discuss autism meltdowns in adults, sensory overload, anxiety, and panic attack symptoms in clear, everyday language. You’ll also hear why it helps to ask what someone needs in the moment, whether that means a quieter space, less conversation, or support from someone they trust.
If you’re an autistic adult, are exploring an autism diagnosis, or support someone who uses the term Asperger’s syndrome, this episode can help you put words to difficult experiences. Meltdowns and panic attacks can overlap, and a clinician can help if you’re unsure what’s happening.
