Am I Autistic? Signs ND Moms Miss (No Diagnosis Needed) If you’re a mom who keeps wondering, “Am I lazy, too much, or just failing at life?”—this episode is for you. On Grounded & In Full Color (https://prynseccebonye.com/groundedin...) , I’m sharing my late/self-recognition autism journey and the most common neurodivergent patterns moms miss (masking, sensory overload, shutdowns, burnout cycles, time-blindness, and the urge to run away when everything gets too loud). You’ll walk away with gentle guidance for exploring a neurodivergent identity without needing certainty or a formal diagnosis yet—plus a simple “wired differently” experiment you can try this week to reduce shame and increase stability. This episode explores late diagnosed autism and late autism self-recognition through the lens of neurodivergent motherhood, especially for the autistic mom who has spent years wondering if she’s broken rather than wired differently. We talk openly about female autism, autism in women, and the often-overlooked autistic traits in women, including masking and unmasking, chronic sensory overload, constant overstimulation, emotional shutdown, long-term burnout, executive dysfunction, and time blindness. I also unpack the complicated feelings around autism self-diagnosis, seeking an autism assessment, and what it means to rebuild your sense of self and identity after autism discovery. If you’re a mom navigating nervous system regulation, practicing gentle parenting when dysregulated, and trying to understand your own brain while caring for others, this episode is a soft place to land—especially for neurodivergent moms who are learning to honor their needs for the first time.
