"I want to say thank you to Andi and Audrey. For the first time in my life it’s been significantly demystified for me why I have so much trouble getting through a job interview. When Audrey and Andi explained to me about monotone voices and people’s perspective while using a dance metaphor I honestly felt as though I’d had a breakthrough and something “clicked”. I look forward to more explanations in the future so that I can continue to productively navigate an interview process that is very unforgiving for people who don’t intuitively understand how to read other’s reactions. Thank you Autism Avenue for the help you have already given me!!"
