Heal Squad x Maria Menounos 814. How to Thrive Through Autism with Big Brother Star Kyland Young
Hey Heal Squad! It’s Mr. Maria Menounos today and I am joined by Kyland Young, The Challenge and Season 23 Big Brother contestant and member of the groundbreaking Cookout alliance. In part 1 of my conversation with Kyland he shares his experience with having his late autism diagnosis come and its impact on his life. From his family and peers to realizing there was something different with him before the diagnosis to the relief and excitement that came with the diagnosis at 30, Kyland discusses the challenges and benefits of living with both autism and ADHD. We also go into detail about his experiences before his diagnosis like the concept of masking, the significance of special interests for those on the spectrum, and the power of embracing neurodiversity. You don't miss this captivating conversation about autism, acceptance, and the transformative nature of self-discovery.
Come back for part 2 of our conversation tomorrow where Kyland and I talk about everything from alliances, to cancel culture, to the similarities and differences between being on Big Brother and The Challenge.
