0:00Welcome back to We Can Do Hard Things, PodSquad.

0:04Whenever the world gets louder, meaner, and more convinced it has everyone and everything

0:10figured out, we start craving conversations that make us curious again.

0:17This is one of those conversations.

0:20Because right now it feels like we're spending a lot more time sorting people into boxes

0:24than asking what it's actually like to be them.

0:27We're making assumptions instead of asking questions. We're choosing certainty over curiosity, hardness over softness, and somebody always ends up unseen.

0:40Enter Hannah Gadsby. Hannah Gadsby changed the way I and so many people understand neurodivergence, communication, and what it means to truly meet another human being where they are instead of where we expect them to be.

0:54Hannah describes receiving an autism diagnosis later in life as an exfoliation of shame.
