Podcast Overview
<p>Welcome to The Autistic Mystic Podcast, the podcast dissecting existence, love, pop culture and the human condition through the unique lens of autism. I created this show so that autistic girls, gays and theys like me wouldn't feel so alone in their journey of understanding their brain. I will be sharing my lived experience as it pertains to autism and my identity intersections (black, queer, woman etc). I won't share research studies and this isn't a teachable moment. You are witnessing yourself through me witnessing myself: come listen, cackle and commiserate. </p><br><p>I also have <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/06ZDfctSjz5PynREGGoySV?si=957210fa4b904c60" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">another</a> podcast you can check out. What's the difference between the two podcasts? My other podcast has over 100 episodes across several years and includes all topics and themes, mostly excluding autism chats. Whereas on The Autistic Mystic Podcast, I exclusively discuss themes and experiences I strongly connect back to autism, always.</p><br><p><br></p><p>Join my Patreon: <a href="https://buymeacoffee.com/autisticasfpodcast" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://buymeacoffee.com/autisticasfpodcast</a></p><p>Buy Me a Coffee:<a href=" https://www.buymeacoffee.com/autisticasfpodcast" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://www.buymeacoffee.com/autisticasfpodcast</a></p><p>Hang out on IG: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/mukundwa_" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/mukundwa_</a></p><p>Hang out on Tik Tok: <a href="mailto:https://www.tiktok.com/@mukundwa.the.mystic" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.tiktok.com/@mukundwa.the.mystic</a></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
