Episode notes
Fix Small Frictions First
- Try small, concrete environmental changes (hooks, moving bins) to cut daily friction.
- Choose activities that give direction and endpoint rather than exercise for its own sake.
Writing From Internal Rhythms
- Darren notices he can zoom out and see emotional and spatial patterns when calm and uses writing to make sense.
- Poetry and rhythm help him process before words arrive.
Meet People In Pattern Language
- Pattern language prioritizes sound, shape, colour and motion before words for connection.
- Meeting autistic kids in that pre-verbal pattern language builds connection first, then shared speech.
