About this listen

Prepare to be inspired by Julia DeNey, the visionary founder of Sense-ational You, who, fresh out of Cornell University in 2020 with a Fashion Design degree, shifted her focus from traditional runways to a truly impactful mission, ignited by her heartfelt volunteer work at an autism preschool. With three years of hands-on experience as a special education para in autism classrooms, Julia gained profound insights into the unique needs of autistic children, directly shaping Sense-ational You into a pioneering force addressing the long-overlooked clothing market for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder and Sensory Processing Disorder. This isn't just about fashion; it's a bold movement to bring vital recognition and acceptance into the industry, driven by a mission to enhance the inclusion and academic success of autistic and sensory children through clothing that promotes regulation, safety, and belonging. Sense-ational You is designing garments that empower children to control their surroundings and validate their sensory needs and masterfully leverages fashion to spark crucial conversations and foster greater acceptance of neurodiversity — truly creating a more inclusive world, one comfortable, empowering stitch at a time.
