Pride and Wellbeing

Welcome to Episode 4 of Season 5 of the Yellow Ladybugs Podcast series.This episode describes how autistic pride and emotional wellbeing are closely linked—especially for autistic girls and gender-diverse young people, who often grow up feeling different, misunderstood, or unseen. Without the right support, this can lead to shame, isolation, and poor mental health. But when young people feel affirmed in their identity and connected to community, everything changes.
