Listen "S4: Conversation 4 || Beyond First Impressions: Listening Deeply & Amplifying Neurodivergent Voices"
Episode Synopsis
Carolyn is the creator and host of Beyond 6 Seconds, an award winning podcast dedicated to going beyond the quick first impressions we form and into the layered, powerful stories of neurodivergent people from around the world. Through her thoughtful interviews, she explores how neurodivergence intersects with culture, identity, and lived experience—amplifying voices and challenging assumptions. By day, Carolyn is an Instructional Design Senior Manager, creating accessible training for a global workforce. In both her corporate work and her podcasting, she’s committed to accessibility, clarity, and giving people the time and space to be heard. Diagnosed as autistic later in life, Carolyn draws on her own journey—marked by academic excellence, deep focus on passions, and the challenges of coordination, group work, and sensory overwhelm—to connect with her guests on a deeper level. A self-taught podcaster, she’s blended her background in music, technology, and learning design into a show that’s both inviting and impactful, evolving over the years to shine a bright light on the richness of neurodiverse experiences. @beyond6seconds #autism #autismawareness #autismo #podcast #neurodiversity #fun #learning #learn #mentalhealth #parenting #education #explore #fyp #adhd #voice #listening #joy #new #neurodivergent
