  • Late Diagnosis Club: How Shyloe Learned to Care for Her Sensitive Heart After Late Diagnosis

    Late Diagnosis Club: How Shyloe Learned to Care for Her Sensitive Heart After Late Diagnosis
    Apr 10 2026
    In this meeting of The Late Diagnosis Club, Dr Angela Kingdon welcomes Shyloe Fayad, a late-diagnosed Autistic school counsellor and somatic experiencing practitioner based on the stolen land of the Syilx people of the Okanagan in Canada.Shyloe works both within schools and in private practice, supporting neurodivergent people, mixed race communities, and teens and adults navigating depression and anxiety.Together, Angela and Shyloe explore sensitivity, boundaries, and the quiet but radical act of honouring your own needs in a culture that often teaches you not to.🪑 AttendeesChair: Dr Angela Kingdon — Author, community-builder, and Autistic advocateGuest: Shyloe Fayad — Late-diagnosed Autistic School counsellor and somatic experiencing practitionerYou: The Listener!🗒️ Meeting AgendaOpening remarks from the ChairMember introduction: Learning to trust your own needsDiscussion: Sensitivity, boundaries, and self-trustLate diagnosis and identity integrationCultural conditioning and productivity expectationsEmotional processing and internal timingAccountability vs compassionKey learningsClub announcements🧾 Minutes from the Meeting1️⃣ Opening RemarksAngela welcomes Shyloe Fayad to the club, introducing a conversation centred on emotional sensitivity, self-trust, and rebuilding your relationship with yourself after a late diagnosis.2️⃣ Member Introduction: Shyloe’s StoryShyloe was raised in environments that prioritised productivity, deadlines, and external expectations over internal needs. Over time, this led to a disconnection from her own timing and instincts, something she began to recognise and unlearn following her late Autism diagnosis.Her work as a counsellor and somatic practitioner informs this perspective, grounding the conversation in the body, nervous system, and the lived experience of navigating a world that often teaches people not to trust themselves.3️⃣ Discussion HighlightsSensitivity: Experiencing the world deeply and needing space to processSelf-trust: Relearning how to listen to internal signalsCultural conditioning: Being taught your needs are “less important”Productivity pressure: Deadlines overriding well-beingWomen and masking: Social expectations shaping behaviourAccountability vs compassion: The tension between rules and humanityBlack-and-white thinking: Wanting clear rules in complex social situationsCommunity: Drawing strength from like-minded peopleEmotional care: Protecting your “sensitive heart”4️⃣ Key LearningsYou have been taught not to trust your needs — and that can be unlearned.Sensitivity is not a weakness, but something to be protected.There is no perfect rulebook for being human — only ongoing adjustment.Accountability and compassion must coexist.Late diagnosis is the beginning of rebuilding self-trust.Community can help you navigate a world that feels misaligned.Honouring your needs is a practice, not a one-time decision.You can start again — as many times as you need.📌 Notice BoardContact Shyloe: radicalwondering@gmail.comShyloe’s InstagramRadical Wondering InstagramFacebook: Shyloe Fayad📣 Club Announcements🎧 The Late Diagnosis Club is available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and all major platforms.💬 Join our online meetups and community at latediagnosis.club.📌 Check the LDC Notice Board for Member Contributions💜 There is a small charge — but no one is turned away for lack of funds.🌈 Celebrate autistic voices with early access, ad-free listening, and our full archive at AutisticCulturePlus.com🌐 Visit www.autisticculturepodcast.com📲 Follow us on Instagram: @autisticculturepodcast🎙️ Executive Producers: Amy Burns, Anamaria B Call, Andrew Banner, Anna Goodson, Ashley Apelzin, Audrea Volker, Ben Coulson, Brian Churcek, Cappy Hamper, Carley Biblin, Charlene Deva, Chloe Cross, Clay Duhigg, Clayton Oliver, Danny Dunn, Daria Brown, David Garrido, Emily Burgess, Eric Crane, Erik Stenerud, Fiona Baker, Grace Norman, Helen Shaddock, Jaimie Collins, Jason Killian, Jen Unruh, Jennifer Carpenter, Julia Tretter, Kathie Watson-Gray, Kenneth Knowles, Kira Cotter, Kristine Lang, Kyle Raney, Llew P Williams, Laura Alvarado, Laura De Vito, Laura Provonsha, Lily George, Nelly Darmi, Nigel Rogers, Rachel Miller, Tim Scott, Tyler Kunz, Victoria Steed, Yanina Wood.🎧 Producers: AJ Knight, Bobby Simon, Da Kovac, Eleanor Collins, Emily Griffiths, Hannah Hughes, Jennifer Kemp, Jonas Fløde, Kate F, Katie N Benitez, Kendra Murphy, Lisa Dennys, Logan Wall, Louise Lomas, Melissa Nance, Nicola Owen, Rebecka Johansson, Sam Morris, Sarah Hannah Morris.

  • Late Diagnosis Club: How Carolyn Discovered She Was Autistic Through Her Own Podcast

    Late Diagnosis Club: How Carolyn Discovered She Was Autistic Through Her Own Podcast
    Apr 3 2026
    In this meeting of The Late Diagnosis Club, Dr Angela Kingdon welcomes Carolyn Kiel, host of the award-winning podcast Beyond 6 Seconds, who discovered she was Autistic not before, but through her podcasting journey.Together, Angela and Carolyn explore late discovery through connection, the limits of traditional narratives around autism, workplace misunderstandings, and how language and self-understanding can transform everyday life.🪑 AttendeesChair: Dr Angela Kingdon — Author, community-builder, and Autistic advocateGuest: Carolyn Kiel — Host of the Beyond 6 Seconds PodcastYou: The Listener!🗒️ Meeting AgendaOpening remarks from the ChairMember introduction: Discovering autism through podcastingDiscussion: Representation, stereotypes, and lived experienceLate diagnosis and identity integrationSelf-identification vs formal diagnosisPost-diagnosis adjustments and accommodationsAutistic joy and special interestsKey learningsClub announcements🧾 Minutes from the Meeting1️⃣ Opening RemarksAngela introduces Carolyn Kiel, host of Beyond 6 Seconds, a long-running podcast exploring human experiences and neurodiversity. Carolyn shares how her podcasting journey began as a creative outlet, and unexpectedly became the pathway to discovering her own Autistic identity.2️⃣ Member Introduction: Carolyn’s StoryCarolyn began podcasting in 2018 to build creative expression and practise one-on-one conversations. As an introverted and self-described shy person, interviewing others about their passions offered a structured way to connect.Through her podcast, she encountered members of the disability and neurodivergent community, including Autistic creators. Hearing their experiences, particularly how autism felt rather than how it was externally described, led to a growing sense of recognition.After further research, particularly around how autism presents in women, Carolyn began to question whether she might be Autistic. She later pursued a formal diagnosis in her mid-40s, which confirmed her understanding and led her to pivot her podcast toward neurodivergent voices and intersectional experiences.3️⃣ Discussion HighlightsDiscovery through others: Recognising yourself in the lived experiences of othersBeyond stereotypes: Moving past narrow 80s/90s definitions of autismSelf-identification vs diagnosis: Barriers, access, and validity of both pathsSocial confusion: Difficulty navigating conversations, timing, and group dynamicsCommunication shifts: Learning to verbalise internal processing needsAccommodations: Fidgets, earplugs, sunglasses, and sensory awarenessPodcasting as control: Creative ownership, structure, and autonomyIntersectionality: Exploring neurodivergence across race, gender, and identityCorporate navigation: Developing “scripts” to survive workplace culture4️⃣ Key LearningsLate diagnosis can emerge through connection and shared stories, not just clinical pathways.Understanding internal experience is often more powerful than external definitions.Self-identification is valid, particularly where diagnostic barriers exist.Giftedness and competence can mask significant support needs.Small accommodations can meaningfully improve daily life.Workplace challenges are often rooted in misunderstanding, not inability.Identity integration is an ongoing process, not a single moment of clarity.📌 Notice BoardBeyond 6 Seconds: Neurodiversity stories from neurodivergent peopleRecommended Episode: Interview with Tiffany Hammond (A Day With No Words)📣 Club Announcements🎧 The Late Diagnosis Club is available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and all major platforms.💬 Join our online meetups and community at latediagnosis.club.📌 Check the LDC Notice Board for Member Contributions💜 There is a small charge — but no one is turned away for lack of funds.🌈 Celebrate autistic voices with early access, ad-free listening, and our full archive at AutisticCulturePlus.com🌐 Visit www.autisticculturepodcast.com📲 Follow us on Instagram: @autisticculturepodcast🎙️ Executive Producers: Amy Burns, Anamaria B Call, Andrew Banner, Anna Goodson, Ashley Apelzin, Audrea Volker, Ben Coulson, Brian Churcek, Cappy Hamper, Carley Biblin, Charlene Deva, Chloe Cross, Clay Duhigg, Clayton Oliver, Danny Dunn, Daria Brown, David Garrido, Emily Burgess, Eric Crane, Erik Stenerud, Fiona Baker, Grace Norman, Helen Shaddock, Jaimie Collins, Jason Killian, Jen Unruh, Jennifer Carpenter, Julia Tretter, Kathie Watson-Gray, Kenneth Knowles, Kira Cotter, Kristine Lang, Kyle Raney, Llew P Williams, Laura Alvarado, Laura De Vito, Laura Provonsha, Lily George, Nelly Darmi, Nigel Rogers, Rachel Miller, Tim Scott, Tyler Kunz, Victoria Steed, Yanina Wood.🎧 Producers: AJ Knight, Bobby Simon, Da Kovac, Eleanor Collins, Emily Griffiths, Hannah Hughes, Jennifer Kemp, Jonas Fløde, Kate F, Katie N Benitez, Kendra Murphy, Lisa Dennys, Logan Wall, Louise Lomas, Melissa Nance, Nicola Owen, Rebecka Johansson, ...

  • Late Diagnosis Club: How Michael Discovered He Was Autistic After Years of Anxiety Misdiagnosis

    Late Diagnosis Club: How Michael Discovered He Was Autistic After Years of Anxiety Misdiagnosis
    Mar 27 2026
    In this meeting of The Late Diagnosis Club, Dr Angela Kingdon welcomes Michael Kelly, a late-diagnosed Autistic artist and recent PhD graduate in design whose work explores how art can help us think about thinking.Michael’s path to diagnosis began unexpectedly during his wife Susie’s autism assessment. After sitting in on several sessions as her carer, the clinician suggested that Michael pursue an assessment as well, leading to his own diagnosis a year later.Together, Angela and Michael explore childhood solitude and special interests, creative practice as a way of understanding the mind, and how art can disrupt the systems that shape our thinking.🪑 AttendeesChair: Dr Angela Kingdon — Author, community-builder, and Autistic advocateGuest: Michael Kelly — Autistic artist, designer, and researcherYou: The Listener!🗒️ Meeting AgendaOpening remarks from the ChairMember introduction: Growing up as the “weird kid” and finding refuge in books and ideasDiscussion: Philosophy, art practice, and early adult burnoutPsychosis, misdiagnosis, and years labelled as anxietyAutistic masking, sensory overwhelm, and family patternsArt as inquiry: performance, sculpture, and metacognitionArtificial intelligence, normativity, and the role of artistsKey learningsClub announcements🧾 Minutes from the Meeting1️⃣ Opening RemarksAngela introduces Michael Kelly, a late-diagnosed Autistic artist and newly minted PhD graduate whose research explores how art can help us understand thinking itself, particularly in the context of emerging technologies and artificial intelligence.2️⃣ Member Introduction: Michael’s StoryMichael describes growing up as “the weird kid,” finding comfort in solitary interests like books, dinosaurs, comics, and drawing. As an only child, he often retreated into imagination and reflection. Experiences that, in hindsight, align with Autistic ways of engaging with the world.After studying philosophy at Durham University in the UK, Michael pursued creative work and eventually a career in advertising before experiencing severe burnout and psychosis in his mid-20s. For years afterwards, he lived under an anxiety diagnosis without understanding the deeper neurodivergent context behind his experiences.3️⃣ Discussion HighlightsOnly-child solitude: Safe space for imagination, reading, and deep thinkingEarly interests: Dinosaurs, comics, drawing, theology, and philosophyAdvertising burnout: Workplace pressure and sensory overload leading to psychosisMisdiagnosis: Years labelled with anxiety before autism was consideredPartner recognition: Sitting in on Susie’s autism assessment sparked Michael’s ownMasking and sensory overwhelm: Eye contact, social performance, and inherited patternsArt as inquiry: Performance art, sculpture, and artistic experiments exploring the mindMetacognition: Using art to examine how humans think about thinkingAI and normativity: Concerns about artificial intelligence reinforcing “average” thinking4️⃣ Key LearningsLate discovery often begins with recognition by someone close to us.Years of anxiety or other diagnoses can obscure underlying neurodivergence.Creative practice can become a powerful tool for understanding internal experience.Masking and sensory overwhelm often shape lifelong coping strategies.Artists may play an important role in questioning the systems and technologies shaping our future.📌 Notice BoardMichael’s Website📣 Club Announcements🎧 The Late Diagnosis Club is available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and all major platforms.💬 Join our online meetups and community at latediagnosis.club.📌 Check the LDC Notice Board for Member Contributions💜 There is a small charge — but no one is turned away for lack of funds.🌈 Celebrate autistic voices with early access, ad-free listening, and our full archive at AutisticCulturePlus.com🌐 Visit www.autisticculturepodcast.com📲 Follow us on Instagram: @autisticculturepodcast🎙️ Executive Producers: Amy Burns, Anamaria B Call, Andrew Banner, Anna Goodson, Ashley Apelzin, Audrea Volker, Ben Coulson, Brian Churcek, Cappy Hamper, Carley Biblin, Charlene Deva, Chloe Cross, Clay Duhigg, Clayton Oliver, Danny Dunn, Daria Brown, David Garrido, Emily Burgess, Eric Crane, Erik Stenerud, Fiona Baker, Grace Norman, Helen Shaddock, Jaimie Collins, Jason Killian, Jen Unruh, Jennifer Carpenter, Julia Tretter, Kathie Watson-Gray, Kenneth Knowles, Kira Cotter, Kristine Lang, Kyle Raney, Llew P Williams, Laura Alvarado, Laura De Vito, Laura Provonsha, Lily George, Nelly Darmi, Nigel Rogers, Rachel Miller, Tim Scott, Tyler Kunz, Victoria Steed, Yanina Wood.🎧 Producers: AJ Knight, Bobby Simon, Da Kovac, Eleanor Collins, Emily Griffiths, Hannah Hughes, Jennifer Kemp, Jonas Fløde, Kate F, Katie N Benitez, Kendra Murphy, Lisa Dennys, Logan Wall, Louise Lomas, Melissa Nance, Nicola Owen, Rebecka Johansson, Sam Morris, Sarah Hannah Morris.
