In this episode of Late to the Party, Dan speaks with MJ Warfield about what it’s really like to work in a job that looks completely incompatible with an AuDHD brain. Loud, chaotic, high‑pressure, the kind of environment most of us would run from. But MJ shows how building a career around your special interests can flip the script entirely. She shares the quiet superpower that helps her thrive in a loud job, and why it works.Later, Dan sits down with his friend of forty years, Martin Ryan, for a conversation about late diagnosis, self‑knowledge, and the strange clarity that arrives when you finally get the right lens for understanding your own life. It’s thoughtful, funny, and grounded in the kind of honesty only long friendships allow.If you enjoy the show and if you’d happily meet Dan once a month and buy him a coffee, consider supporting the podcast on Patreon. Your support keeps the show independent, covers production costs, and ensures Dan can keep making the kind of episodes no sponsor would ever approve… especially the song he wrote for Martin at the end of this one.Links:The Round: https://theround.com.auMartin on Insta @martin_t_ryanSupport the show on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/cw/LateToThePartyAutismPodcastPlease come join us on our socials where we are very much present.

This week on Late To The Party, I chat with author and engineer Travis Alexander about his memoir, life as a late-diagnosed autistic adult, and the many unexpected twists that led him to where he is today. We talk about relationships, communication, travel disasters, fatherhood, breakdancing, engineering, and the challenge of making sense of a world that often feels a little confusing. Honest, funny and deeply relatable, this is a conversation about self-discovery, resilience and finding your place in the world.Find Travis Alexander📖 Stairway to the Spectrum https://www.travisalexander.com.au/book🌐 Website https://www.travisalexander.com.au/🎧 Audiobook available on Spotify and Audible.

Three years after her first appearance, Jessica is back on the podcast for an honest catch‑up about life six‑plus years post‑diagnosis.
