Episode description

Having had several chance encounters at the Autism Shows, we're delighted to finally have Tigger Pritchard as a guest on the podcast! 'Awesomely Autistic' is a profound and insightful exploration of Tigger's personal journey as a neuroaffirming advocate, consultant, and trainer.

Tigger shares a heartfelt and deeply honest insight into his experiences growing up as an autistic individual. He describes the challenges he faced, particularly during his school years, when he felt alienated and misunderstood in a world that didn't seem to embrace his unique way of thinking and engaging with the world. Tigger recounts his attempts to fit in, the social isolation, and the trauma he experienced.

Tigger shares how he eventually found his footing by discovering his passions and interests, which provided a sense of safety and belonging. He highlights what helped him along the way on his journey and how sensory experiences shaped his memories.

"To anybody that discovers they're neurodivergent. I say find your well informed neurokin as soon as you can".
