In this episode, Christine is joined by Abs, the producer of ‘Unlearning Autism’ and a late-identified Autistic artist and audio producer. Together they explore masking, sensory flow, burnout, and creative recovery — how sound, rhythm, and art can hold what words sometimes can’t.

“Creativity isn’t about performing — it’s how I translate the world.” — Abs
