I’m Lovette Jallow, an award-winning author, speaker, and consultant specializing in neurodiversity, intersectionality, and human rights. As a Black Autistic woman with ADHD (AuDHD), I know what it means to exist in spaces where curiosity, reciprocity, and care are absent.
If you’ve ever felt unseen in conversations, drained by one-sided relationships, or exhausted by the constant expectation of emotional labor, this episode is for you. Autistic loneliness isn’t just about being alone—it’s about being surrounded by people who don’t see you, leaving you disconnected and unseen.
In the first episode of "Lov(ette) or Leave It," I break down why autistic loneliness happens, how neurodivergent people experience social exhaustion, and what we can do about it. We talk about boundaries, reciprocity, and why creating spaces that truly value neurodivergent people isn’t optional—it’s essential.
🎙 Listen now to understand why autistic loneliness happens, how it affects neurodivergent people, and what meaningful connection really looks like.
