Autistic Adulting Transition Hacks: Psycho-Spiritual Rise from Chaos | Dr. Jessie & Omar Ferreira Interview

Send us a textAutistic adulting identity crisis? In this raw ramble on Adulting with Autism, host April (autistic OT) chats with power duo Dr. Jessie & Omar Ferreira (A Soul’s Quest founders) on flipping "everything right, feels wrong" to authentic quests—career/identity loss, anxiety loops, people-pleasing masks. Psychotherapist (Jessie) + youth dev leader (Omar) turned podcasters/authors (A Soul’s Quest: A Transformational Approach to Life), they're blending modern psych (CBT journaling) with wisdom (universe knowing itself—Carl Sagan vibes) for midlife awakenings.Transcript gems: Anxiety vs. intuition (pause/feel—breathe through buzz), people-pleasing trap (microdose "no" via belonging quests—find aligned tribes), "why" loops to "what am I learning?" (rewire for growth), and "remembering the self" (unfold like a flower—express without conformity). For autistic young adults fawning/shrinking, parents spotting overwhelm, or OT squad fostering expression, this is your 'what the actual?' psycho-spiritual toolkit—no woo dryness, just embodied freedom.Timestamps: 0:00 - Intro: Chaos Transitions & Their Journey 2:30 - Podcast Origin (Abrupt Endings to Purpose) 8:45 - Anxiety vs. Intuition (Pause & Feel) 15:20 - People-Pleasing & Microdosing "No" 22:10 - Journaling/CBT Wisdom Blend 30:00 - Life as Quest (Expression Experiment) 40:00 - Resources & Final Fills 50:00 - OutroSub on Apple Podcasts or Spotify for unmasked tips—reviews build the squad!
