If you’ve been told that autistic women can’t lead, command a room, or inspire a crowd, this episode is for you.

Dr. Kathy Marshack dives into the "myth of the proper autistic woman" through the lens of a fictional, yet deeply resonant character: Poppy Lee from Apple TV’s Mythic Quest. We break down the iconic "Sequins and Sob-stories" speech, a moment of total, unmasked vulnerability that didn't just earn applause, but started a revolution.

We explore the brilliant strategy behind Poppy’s "messiness," the exhausting reality of "bro culture" in Silicon Valley, and why the most powerful thing a neurodiverse woman can do is say: "Here I am. Take it or leave it."

Whether you are a woman in tech, a parent of a one-of-a-kind daughter, or a professional trying to bridge the gap, join us as we celebrate the marvelous, unpolished truth of the NeuroDiverse heart.
