Adulting with Autism
Adulting with Autism isn’t just a podcast — it’s a movement.
We give autistic and neurodivergent adults the platform, voice, and validation they’ve always deserved. Here, we don’t mask. We don’t perform. We belong.
Every episode brings honest conversations with leaders, advocates, and everyday people who are rewriting what it means to thrive as a neurodivergent adult. We talk life skills, independence, mental health, relationships, careers, and legacy — because autistic voices don’t just need a seat at the table… we are the table.
Ranked among Apple’s Top 200 Podcasts (All Categories), Adulting with Autism is proof that our voices are resonating worldwide.
Join us Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays as we move beyond survival, build authentic lives, and create legacies that last.
Because autism isn’t broken. It’s just a different frequency — and the world is finally tuning in.

Autistic Money Mindset: Rewrite Beliefs for Freedom | Estelle Gibson
Autistic money struggles? Estelle Gibson (CPA, TED Speaker w/ 2.3M views, Poor by Choice? author) shares: Post-divorce rebuild, her holistic coaching customizes spending plans (not restrictive budgets) for neurodivergent journeys—uncover environments shaping beliefs (society/family/programming), flip permissive thoughts ("I'll do it tomorrow" to action), and manifestation formula (words → thoughts → beliefs → actions → experience). For autistic young adults starting bills-free, parents teaching necessities/wants, or anyone ditching 'I'm bad with math' myths, this convo's your toolkit—awareness first (track inflows/outflows, subscriptions), then choice (needs vs. wants for dreams like retirement).
