Summary
Hello, everybody! We are back to the normal question and answer format this week. I really enjoyed episode 100, in which my friend Dan Fields interviewed me as a guest. If you haven't checked that one out yet, I suggest it! Next week will be another interview as well with an awesome guest. Here are the questions that I tackle this week:
- What should I do to have a better work-life balance when my colleagues work all weekend?
- Why do I have a great memory for school, but a terrible memory for social information?
- Is stimming a valid coping strategy for fatigue and burnout as a person with autism?
