Talking Twaddle with Jasmine Deakin
On this episode of Talking Twaddle, your host Joanne Hatchard from Better Being Me talks to social worker Jasmine Deakin from Sunny Spectrum Supports. They talk about employment for autistic people, their own work as social workers and the insight that has brought them. The differences between social work and psychology, unpacking past trauma and the validation of diagnosis are touched on. The grief a diagnosis can bring leads to a discussion about reframing, and the old stereotypes are discussed. Then how affirming being around other neurodivergent people can be, although there are still differences.

BBMe Bites - Be The Change You Want to See
I have just finished attending webinar hosted by @wwda_au on NDIS and Gender. Amazing source of information and support. I am not overly surprised to report that there are more males receiving NDIS support then females. Which is not a direct relationship between the number of men vs females with disabilities. So what you might say. I can only provide insight from my experience and knowledge. From my son's journey, and my own research and contemplations I see myself on the spectrum. I am fairly typical in the female presentation of autism, and...
