About this listen

Discover why the term "internalizing" resonates more than "masking" for understanding the autistic experience. In this episode, we explore how martial arts mentorship, the principles of practice and repetition, and the ability to turn weaknesses into strengths shaped a life of resilience and self-advocacy. Learn about the hidden impacts of internalizing behaviors, the challenges of assessments overlooking internal struggles, and why managing discomfort has profound consequences. A must-listen for anyone seeking insight into autism, self-development, and the balance between resilience and authenticity.
