Why are so many autistic females late-diagnosed?
If you’ve ever asked this question yourself, listen to Olivia Hops, a late-diagnosed Autistic Self-Advocate and YouTuber from California, explain some of the possible reasons.
Among other things, we discuss:
- Olivia’s journey of being diagnosed with autism at age 24
- The underdiagnosis of females on the spectrum
- Some ways in which Olivia masked while growing up
- How autism affects her daily life
- Building a business as an autistic adult
