120 - Autistic Menopause & Aging with Christine Jenkins

How often do you hear or read something around older autistic adults and our aging process? Not often I will bet. Thanks to Christine Jenkins and the Autistic Menopause research team not only is autistic aging coming to the foreground but so is Menopause.



Finally!!! There are so many of us who have been privately discussing where we are in this season of our lives going through perimenopause and how it impacts our sensory systems and even our experience of burnout.



Join me today to learn more about Autistic Menopause & Aging with co-author of Spectrum Women (2018) Christine Jenkins.



NEXT WEEK…. Sensory Systems, ADHD & Burnout with Bridget Fornaro.
