Huge thank you to Ella Dawley and NeuroTalent Works for such a thoughtful, engaging, and genuinely meaningful conversation💛

One of my biggest takeaways:
“Accommodations start with self-awareness—identify your strengths, your challenges, and then ask: what would make this 10x easier?”

We talked a lot about how:

* You’re not asking to avoid your job—you’re asking for the tools to do it better
* The question “what energizes me vs. what drains me?” can unlock real, practical support
* And that self-advocacy starts with knowing yourself—and giving yourself permission to ask for what you need

I’m also so excited to dive into Ella’s book Guerrilla Mode. if it’s anything like the insight and authenticity she brought to this conversation, it’s going to be powerful.

So grateful for the collaboration, the conversation, and this community. Looking forward to many more 💫

Tune in to On and Off The Spectrum Podcast featuring my dear friend Dr. Esther Hess and Dr. Ann Kirsch with special guest Taylor Cole to explore insights on autism, therapy, and neurodiversity—listen now!

This is interesting for me because I’ve used neurospicy before to describe myself. I do agree with some of these points and it’s also allowed me to evolve becoming more aware of how my language can be interpreted.

Interesting perspective from Dr. Grandin

-Dr. Temple Grandin-

Autism Vocab you should know. I teach the people I work with about these terms because it gives them the vocabulary to successfully advocate for themselves.

That’s a wrap! 🎉
Huge thank you to this incredibly talented cast and crew, our amazing band, and the beautiful space that brought us all together. There was so much nostalgia, music, and hopefulness in the room as we head into the holidays.
And thank you to Cris and everyone at for making this show happen and keeping the dream alive!

What a night! The cast and band crushed our first rehearsal in the space. The energy was electric and the acoustics are incredible. We open Friday! Ticket 🎟️ link in bio 💃💃💃🎙️🙆🏻‍♂️
