  • The Autistic Nervous System, Horses and Co-Regulation
    Sep 30 2025

    How do we move beyond the labels of "disability" and "levels" when talking about autism? More importantly, how can we actually regulate our nervous system for a better quality of life?

    In this fascinating episode, I sit down with Ishe Abel, an autistic woman, podcaster, and groundbreaking advocate. Ishe, creator of The Horse Human Connection Matrix, reveals an incredible insight: horses offer a powerful, unexpected model for connection and regulation that deeply resonates with the autistic experience.

    From challenging conventional views on autism to sharing details about her unique, transformative retreat, this conversation is packed with a refreshing new perspective. Don't miss this illuminating talk with the incomparable Ishe Abel.

  • Acetaminophen: What Some Say Causes Autism
    Sep 24 2025

    Questionable studies suggest that acetaminophen causes autism which simply isn’t so. This is an update to the 2022 episode “What Some Say Causes Autism” which, even then, discredited the acetaminophen-autism link and exposed lawsuits alleging damages that have now been dismissed. This issue and episode are too important to miss.

This is a good podcast and I’ve found it helpful. The topics are clearly explained in detailed simplicity. Very relatable and fairly modern.

Very interesting!
