Thank you so much for writing this. I realised I am autistic at 34 and had the similar journey as yours. Although, I got an additional burden of long covid on the way. I am still trying to figure out how to make a living. Your writing made me feel less alone in the journey. Sending you love and peace ♥️

I resonate so deeply with this, Ella! I intentionally chose to go down the "path less traveled" and although it has been challenging at times, I wouldn't trade it for the world. I've had to do a lot of work to stop comparing myself to the paths and timelines of others but I am grateful for people (like you!) that feel like a mirror to my own journey which inspires me to keep moving forward.

Saw this reposted by Jennae and grateful I took the time to read! I saw myself in a lot of what you wrote and it was such a beautiful reflection and reminder to slow down and nourish (but to keep connected to my mission). Thanks for your openness & authenticity 🙏🏻💖
