About

Hi, I’m Taylor. I'm a late-diagnosed autistic mom, creator, and educator learning how to live more gently while getting to know my neurodivergent brain. I found out I was autistic at 31, and suddenly many of my repeated struggles made sense. That relief and clarity is something I wish I could give to anyone who has been wondering why life feels different for you. This channel is where we work through shame, drop the mask, and connect with people who understand how overwhelming this process can be. Whether you’re late-diagnosed, self-diagnosed, or still exploring, you’re welcome here exactly as you are. πŸŽ₯ ⭐️ New videos premiere most Wednesdays at 2 PM CT. If you’re wanting more of that feeling of being seen, my Connection Groups are a space for honest conversation and genuine support (links below). I’m not a doctor, just a human sharing lived experience. Please talk with your healthcare provider before making medical decisions based on anything you see here.

Video Description

Growing up with a high IQ allowed me to go under the radar when it came to identifying my neurodivergent needs. This video explores WHY this happens and how it affects us as late-diagnosed autistic adults. πŸ™€πŸŒŸ RESOURCES πŸŒŸπŸ•Ί πŸ’» 🎭 ONLINE COURSE How to Unmask https://www.momonthespectrum.life/how-to-unmask Online community events (webinars, classes): https://taylorheaton.as.me/schedule.php πŸ“’ Meltdown Survival Guide: https://www.momonthespectrum.life/meltdownsurvivalguide πŸ—‚ FREE Big Autistic Resource Guide (BARG): https://taylorheaton.gumroad.com/l/barg πŸ–₯ Mom on the Spectrum website: https://www.momonthespectrum.life More Mom on the Spectrum Videos: https://www.youtube.com/momonthespectrum ❀️ 🧑 πŸ’› MY FAVORITE THINGS πŸ’š πŸ’™ πŸ’œ Weighted pillow (affiliate link - this is the pillow I’m holding in my lap during the video): https://www.onequietmind.com/?ref=taylor_heaton (Use code: MOMONTHESPECTRUM for 15% off your order) ONO Fidget Roller (affiliate link): http://bit.ly/3xLZnQY (use code: MOMONTHESPECTRUM for 10% off at checkout) Flare Earbuds for Sensory Overwhelm (affiliate link): https://www.flareaudio.com/momonthespectrum Manta Weighted Sleep Mask (affiliate link): https://mantasleep.pxf.io/momonthespectrum (use code: MOMONTHESPECTRUM for 10% off at checkout) MUISTA CHAIR: https://muista.eu/?ref=TAYLOR Use Discount Code: TAYLOR7 πŸ’ƒβ­οΈ FIND ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA 🀠🎢 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/taylor_heaton_ Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@taylor_heaton_ πŸ“¬ BUSINESS ADDRESS: Taylor Heaton 8901 Tehama Ridge Parkway, Suite 127 PMB 680 Fort Worth, TX 76177 πŸ“§ Business inquiries: [email protected] πŸ‘πŸ» FREE πŸ‘πŸ» WAYS TO SHOW YOUR SUPPORT 🦾 πŸŸ₯ SUBSCRIBE to the channel 🟧 LIKE the videos that are helpful to you 🟨 COMMENT in the comment section 🟩 Click the β€œbell” to be notified when I release new videos πŸ™ Thank you immensely to those of you who have already donated, been active on the channel, and/or purchased the Meltdown Survival Guide.
