WHAT'S NEW?
There has been two pretty big changes in the last month and more is to come.
First we welcomed Matthew Rushin on board as a new mentor - I use him myself as a Planning and Processing Coach - and he is excellent.
Then Matthew and I launched a new podcast - The T on ND - available on YouTube and Spotify where we tell the T on all things ND - busting myths, calling out challenges, signposting strengths.
The ND experience told as it is.

Autism - Now what?
Being identified as autistic is only the start of the journey. So many potential directions to go - some lead to disaster and some to success. And often no way to tell until it’s too late. By doing your best to make things better, you can accidentally cause great harm.
And if you are like me - there was no map, no guidebook, no support - just identification. I felt lost, confused, and scared.
If that’s what you’re feeling - you’re in the right place. Here you can finally get that guidebook, that map, that support that everyone needs - and deserves. We’ve got you. We know what works for autistics - because we learned from the best - autistics themselves.
Welcome to Inside Aut - and welcome to the opportunity to learn about autism from the inside out.
What we can do for you
If you were like me when I was first identified, the whole idea of autism is overwhelming. So much conflicting information - a lot of it very negative - and very little of it really seems to help you move forward. The diagnosis of autism carries so many ‘deficits’ - things we can’t do - with no explanation why or what to do about it. And NOTHING about the things we can do, the things we excel at.
And this is because most ‘information’ about autism is guesswork - bad guesswork - by observers who never thought to ask the people they were studying what was REALLY going on. If you want to know about an internal experience, you are never going to learn about it from observing the OUTSIDE. You need people who can tell you about their experience from the INSIDE.
But who has the time to dedicate years to listening to autistic voices? Most people need that information NOW - not years from now.
This is where Inside Aut comes in - we have done that work for you - years of research listening to autistic voices put into easy to access courses and workbooks.
The WHY of why we do what we do and we are the way we are. The tips, the tricks, the workarounds to cover our gaps, where our strengths are - and how to lean into them. How to move from struggling to being our best selves.
You will get a depth of knowledge and understanding here that you can’t get anywhere else - even other experts like Jude Morrow - learn from us.
‘Nanny Aut is the Yoda of Autism - I learn something new every time I listen to them.’ - Jude Morrow
We offer this support in several ways - Courses, Workbooks, One - to One Mentoring and a Facebook Group
About our courses
Autistics often have a highly active limbic system. Our primal protective responses.
Most dominant is our Panic Monkey - our Health and Safety officer, on the lookout for threats and our Dino Brain, our autonomic protective reflex (Fight/Flight response or Meltdowns). If they take charge they can lock out the pre-frontal cortex - our Air-traffic Controller - and take charge of the control room themselves. This is rarely as helpful as Panic Monkey and Dino Brain intends. Understanding how these three interact is central to understanding autism and autistic needs.
There are five keys to understanding this interaction - Sensory Needs, Processing Demands, Energy Levels, Environment and Damage and Trauma.
S.P.E.E.D. for short.

Coaching with Matthew Rushin
Something so common for late-diagnosed autistics is the loss of self. We mask so hard we lose sight of who we really are - our authentic selves. Matthew offers one-to-one coaching to help you on the journey of self-discovery. To learn how to be your true best self.
Already know who you are - but want support for your executive function?
Matthew also offers one hour sessions as a Planning and Processing Coach - helping you process out what you want to do and how to get there.
"Matthew has been mentoring me as a Planning and Processing Coach - and it's been a game-changer" - Nanny Aut
