As a late-identified autistic and polyenic person, Jenny brings her lived and professional experience into everything she does.

"Autistic Revolution isn’t just a magazine it’s a movement, a creative act of resistance, and a home for all minds that have felt out of place in systems not built for us" - Jenny.
Today, her energy is grounded in cultivating Autistic Revolution while also honouring her role as a parent and carer.
"It started out of complete isolation,sat alone in a coffee shop"
"Autistic Revolution isn't just exclusively for Autistic folk in terms of readership. It is for everyone. This is the true meaning of neurodiversity.
All variant brain types".
My Story
I feel a bit uncomfortable discussing myself, but when it comes to injustice for others I cant help myself but to speak up. For some, access to inclusion comes easy. But for my family we still remain isolated and marginlised.
We are still waiting for society to catch on, catch up and shift with us.
As we enter this world, we rely on those around us to shape, influence, inspire, validate, and empower us in the ever-changing environments we encounter. Ultimately, happiness and health are the most important aspects of life.
Many factors can either support or hinder the health and happiness of autistic individuals. Unfortunately, humanity at large has been taught that autism is a disorder or a mental health condition, which is factually incorrect. It is simply a neurological difference. That's all.
Autistic Revolution is not exclusively for those who are Autistic; it welcomes everyone. This embodies the true essence of neurodiversity, embracing all types of variations. As human beings, we should coexist as equals No race is superior, and no culture holds more importance than another. Autistics do not possess special powers; we are simply Autistic. Does we believe that fiction is preferable to reality? While the idea telling children they have special powers may come from a good place, it lacks factual basis and may not be accepted in secondary or high school settings.
" Why is the lie better than the truth"
When im attempting to slow down, I immerse myself in nature, trees, plants,the beach and really great coffee!!
