Rebecca Duffus

Rebecca Duffus, an experienced advisory teacher and author, joins Lyric Rivera, an autistic self-advocate and consultant, to discuss the essential topic of autistic identity development. They explore the importance of starting identity conversations early and the impact of education systems in the UK and US. The duo suggests practical strategies for engaging reluctant children and warns about the overuse of the 'superpower' narrative. Listeners learn how to effectively use their workbook while emphasizing the significance of ongoing, affirming dialogues around identity.
