"To me, autistic joy is about authenticity and being able to express joy in a way that is comfortable and unique to oneself. But I think that there's also this added autism layer to it. Because everybody wants the opportunity to be authentically joyful in the way they would like to be, but I think the added autism layer to it is that the joy may present differently or the joy may be about different things than neurotypical people. I think that kind of joy should be celebrated", says Ryan Walsh. Ryan joins this episode to discuss autistic joy, facilitating an autistic support group for men, and podcast production.
