Debut host <a href="https://twitter.com/sashachapin">Sasha Chapin</a>, is a <a href="https://sashachapin.substack.com/p/on-being-slightly-autistic">slightly autistic</a> writer/coach who's currently pursuing ventures in perfume, charter cities, meta-science, and talking to groups of people.

We are in a time where being neurodivergent seems to be kind of good, to a degree. The fundamental characteristic of being on the spectrum is not hearing the social music –– not reacting to social information in the same way as others. And, more than ever before (covid voice: in these difficult times) we are served well, at least economically, by defying cultural narratives. On the other hand, it's still lonely, weird, and frustrating to not intuit social behavior in the same way other people do. Let's talk about our experiences with our autistic selves/loved ones, and how our brains do/don't help us.
