This convo has me thinking about how often we size up those we interact with, be it subconscious or intentional.

We talk gender identity, intersectionality, and autism; imagine the freedom that comes from approaching confusion with curiosity instead of trying to force compliance.

Curious what else is inside:

• What is anti-fat bias and why it's harmful for every body size

• How identity exploration can be approached gently

• Tune in for a powerful analogy for understanding communication differences between neurodivergent and neurotypical people

This episode might resonate if you:

• Have ever felt rejected and struggled to understand why

• Are exploring your identity, diagnosis, gender, sexuality, or place in the world

• Want a more compassionate framework for understanding yourself and others

In coaching, I attract people who feel pressure to "fix" themselves as quickly as possible.

They want certainty, a label, or a final answer.

But self-understanding is usually much messier than that.

If this feels like you, you do not need to have everything figured out today. Practice makes progress.

If you're looking for support with that:
