Extraordinary stories from neurodivergent people.

“The core of Mad Liberation is you decide what you do with your brain... That's where I think a lot of psychiatric treatment modalities fail, is that they're centered in getting rid of what makes someone diverge from the norm, rather than actually having that person live a happy, fulfilling life.” Hear more from Kantu on my latest episode at https://www.beyond6seconds.net/269 .

My heart aches for Dr. Jason Arday and his family. The racism, ableism and relentless media bullying that precipitated his death is outrageous. He deserved so much better. Black Autistic lives matter.

“Mad Liberation is seeing neurodiversity in places where you might see symptoms.” Hear Kantu and I talk about Mad Liberation on my latest podcast episode at https://www.beyond6seconds.net/269.

My latest podcast guest is Kantu, founder and co-owner of the social media presence known as the Angry Autist. We talk about how Kantu discovered they have dissociative identity disorder (DID), how their autism affected their own experience of DID, their experience with psychotic depression, and the meaning and significance of mad liberation.

Most of these topics were very new to me, and I learned a lot during this episode! Listen to the episode at https://www.beyond6seconds.net/269 .

Earlier this week, I found out that Beyond 6 Seconds won a 2026 Women Who Podcast Award!

My March 2026 episode about Meals in the Meantime won First Place in the Service to Others category. Meals in the Meantime is a nonprofit organization addressing food insecurity in the Chicagoland south suburbs.

In this episode, I interviewed Kevin M. Yates, the nonprofit's President and Founder, about how Meals in the Meantime achieves its mission of “filling the food gap with nourishment and dignity.” I really admire Kevin's leadership and the work of Meals in the Meantime, and I'm thrilled to help raise more awareness of this great organization!

Thank you Women Who Podcast Magazine for recognizing the work and elevating the voices of women podcasters! I am very excited and grateful for this award.

Musician DEĀ EX MACHINĀ discusses the importance of having disability representation in music. Hear more on my latest podcast episode: https://www.beyond6seconds.net/268

Image text is a quote from DEĀ EX MACHINĀ: “I feel very strongly about disability representation in music. If I had that kind of representation as a 14-year-old in music to look up to, I wouldn't have gone through the mental health crisis that I had because of recovering from the brain injury. My disability allows me to do what I do today. It's not a barrier at all. It's completely intertwined with it.”

My latest podcast guest DEĀ EX MACHINĀ talks about how joining Recording Artists and Music Professionals with Disabilities: RAMPD has influenced and supported their work as a musician -- including the release of their debut EP, APO/THECARY! https://www.beyond6seconds.net/268

Image text is a quote from DEĀ EX MACHINĀ: “The brain injury slowed down my willingness to be a performer at first. But then I saw the existence of RAMPD and learned what they stood for, and I thought, ‘I've gotta start sharing my art.’ That drove this synth-pop project, DEĀ EX MACHINĀ. It really is a passion project for me.”

With their lush synth-pop sound, DEĀ EX MACHINĀ promotes harmony and inclusion in society through authentic Disability representation in music. DEĀ EX MACHINĀ advocates for the arts, LGBTQIA+ rights and Environmental and Disability Justice. Their debut EP, APO/THECARY, comes out this week on July 29th.

On my latest episode, I talked with DEĀ EX MACHINĀ about how their brain injury impacted their work as a musician, how joining Recording Artists and Music Professionals with Disabilities: RAMPD influenced their music, and the themes that shape their new EP.
