[277] While the neurodiversity movement has helped pave the way for a lot of changes in how society thinks about autism and other neurological differences, there is still a lot more work to be done. Isolation, exclusion, and loneliness remain all too common experiences for autistic people.
In this heartfelt discussion with Kate Owens-Heins, Founder and CEO of the Sensory Safe Solution (@sensorysafesolution), we explore some of the challenges that autistic individuals face when going to the salon, how her personal experience as a mom led her to transform her own salon into a haven of sensory safety-safe haven and how she made it her life calling to educate professionals on the techniques she's now so well-versed in.
This episode is more than just a conversation; it's a journey into the heart of inclusivity within everyday experiences, emphasizing the need for safer spaces, building trust, and developing a relationship based on understanding and acceptance.
