Episode Synopsis
Send us a text
Autistic adulting identity crisis? In this raw ramble on Adulting with Autism, host April (autistic OT) chats with power duo Dr. Jessie & Omar Ferreira (A Soul’s Quest founders) on flipping "everything right, feels wrong" to authentic quests—career/identity loss, anxiety loops, people-pleasing masks. Psychotherapist (Jessie) + youth dev leader (Omar) turned podcasters/authors (A Soul’s Quest: A Transformational Approach to Life), they're blending modern psych (CBT journaling) with wisdom (universe knowing itself—Carl Sagan vibes) for midlife awakenings.
Transcript gems: Anxiety vs. intuition (pause/feel—breathe through buzz), people-pleasing trap (microdose "no" via belonging quests—find aligned tribes), "why" loops to "what am I learning?" (rewire for growth), and "remembering the self" (unfold like a flower—express without conformity). For autistic young adults fawning/shrinking, parents spotting overwhelm, or OT squad fostering expression, this is your 'what the actual?' psycho-spiritual toolkit—no woo dryness, just embodied freedom.
