S1 E28: Spiky Profiles

In this episode we reflect (broadly!) on the concept of having "spiky profiles".  This relates to us having aptitudes in some areas and limitations in others, usually where the differences are more pronounced than might be expected in the general population.

As usual, we record without a plan / topic in mind and so there are lots of tangents.  We think the authenticity of how we speak in addition to what we say also further demonstrates some of the conundrums of being "spiky" in this way.

We talk about some aspects of our educational histories, noting the unidentified autism and some of the ways in which we have reframed our ways of being nowadays in light of our ongoing personal identification journeys.
