Today I’m joined by writer and creator Ella Willis to talk about autism, masking, sensory overwhelm and what it feels like to move through the world feeling different from everybody else.


We discuss Ella’s brilliant new book, Literally, and have a really honest conversation about late diagnosis, friendships, relationships, people pleasing, routine and the exhaustion that can come from constantly trying to fit into environments that don’t feel built for you.


What I loved so much about this conversation is how relatable it is, whether you are neurodivergent yourself or simply someone who has ever felt misunderstood, overstimulated or emotionally overwhelmed.


Ella speaks with such honesty, humour and self awareness, and I think so many of you will take comfort from this episode.
