We’re back!!! 

Nicole and Lauren finally press record after a six-month break from recording together. 

In this episode, we share updates on our lives, including meeting in person for the first time, camping adventures, and Lauren’s transition back into nursing. Nicole delves deep into her family’s discovery and acceptance of autism, discussing her daughter’s diagnosis for the first time publicly,  and the subsequent journey of self-exploration and dismantling ableism. 

The conversation touches on the challenges and beauty of having neurodivergent traits, the personal development that comes with it, and the power of being seen and validated in complex experiences. We explore the significance of community, support systems, and the nuances of navigating life with newfound identities and labels.

This episode invites you to explore what identities or labels you might be clinging onto and guides you to embrace devotion instead of discipline as we continue forward in the new year.
