Unlearning the Empathy Myth with Laura Crowley

In this episode of Unlearning Autism, I’m joined by Laura Crowley, an Autistic advocate and consultant with over 25 years’ experience supporting neurodivergent children, teenagers and families.

Laura shares her experience of late identification after decades working in autism services, the myths that prevented her from recognising herself, and the relief of finally understanding her own Autistic identity.

We explore empathy, authenticity and the importance of challenging outdated assumptions about Autistic people.
