About the Show

After the masquerade, the masks come off — Following the Threads is a podcast for late-diagnosed autistic adults, ADHD and AuDHD women, and anyone navigating neurodivergence in a neurotypical world. Season 1 follows autistic researcher Natasha Stavros, Ph.D. and licensed psychotherapist Sarah Liebman (ADHD) through the full arc of adult autism diagnosis — from "wait, is this me?" through evaluation, identity shift, and what comes next. Drawing from The Unmasking Diary, the real-time journal behind Natasha's forthcoming memoir After the Masquerade, each episode weaves lived experience with social, psychological, and spiritual frameworks for resilience. Because unmasking is nonlinear, so is the podcast — seasons 2 through 9 follow the threads of adult neurodivergent life across identity, employment, relationships, parenting, and family. Wherever you are in your journey, there's a thread here for you — learn more at wkidsolutions.com/services/podcast-following-the-threads/
