βœ¨πŸš‚ AUTISTIC GIRL TOOLKIT ALERT πŸš‚βœ¨

One of the best things I've ever applied for as an autistic woman is my Disabled Persons Railcard! πŸ’•πŸŒΈ

It gives me AND a companion 1/3 off rail travel, which has saved me so much money over the years.

Whether you're planning a day trip to Glasgow or an adventure to the Highlands, you can use it on train journeys all over Scotland and across the UK. πŸ°πŸš„πŸ’–

I found applying online really quick and straightforward.

You'll usually need:

πŸ“Έ A passport-style photo
πŸͺͺ Photo ID
πŸ’Œ Proof of disability (for example, PIP/ADP award letter, Blue Badge or other eligible evidence)

As an autistic woman, this has genuinely been a lifesaver for me.

Travel can already be expensive enough, so any savings are always welcome! πŸ’•βœ¨

If you have a Disabled Bus Pass, you may already have one of the documents needed to apply.

🌸🚍 The Railcard gives discounted train travel for both you and one adult companion travelling with you. πŸš‚πŸ’•

It's definitely part of my personal Autistic Girl Toolkit and I wouldn't be without mine! πŸ’–πŸ‘›βœ¨

One thing I love sharing on Autistic Girl is a good discount, especially when the cost of living seems to keep going up! πŸ’•πŸ’·

If you're an Edinburgh resident, you can currently get 20% off food at Down the Hatch through the Forever Edinburgh Resident Rewards scheme. πŸŽ‰

Whether you're meeting friends, having a family meal, or simply treating yourself after a long week, it's always nice to save a little money while still enjoying yourself. ✨

As an autistic woman, I know how important it can be to balance our budgets while still making time for the things we enjoy. That's why I'll always share any good deals I come across that I think might be useful to our community. πŸ’–

Have you been to Down the Hatch before? I'd love to hear what you'd recommend! πŸ‘‡βœ¨

πŸ’•βœ¨ A little thought from me tonight... βœ¨πŸ’•

Sometimes life doesn't go according to plan.

You can put your heart into something, feel excited about what's ahead, and then suddenly find yourself facing an unexpected bump in the road. 🌸

As an autistic woman, I love certainty. I love plans. I love knowing what's happening. πŸ’•

But life has a funny way of reminding us that not everything is within our control.

What is within our control is how we respond.

We can stop.

We can give up.

Or we can keep moving forward, trusting that the road still leads somewhere beautiful. 🌷✨

One of my favourite S*x and the City quotes is:

πŸ’– "Some people are settling down, some people are settling, and some people refuse to settle for anything less than butterflies." β€” Carrie Bradshaw

And I think that's true of dreams too.

Sometimes a detour is simply life refusing to let us settle for less than we're capable of. πŸ¦‹βœ¨

So tonight I'm choosing to keep going, keep believing, and keep looking ahead.

Because one bump in the road doesn't change where I'm going. πŸš—πŸ’•

πŸ’” IMPORTANT UPDATE πŸ’”

I am very sorry to let everyone know that the venue has cancelled our upcoming Autistic Girl meetup, and as a result the event will no longer be taking place on the advertised date.

This decision was made by the venue and is due to circumstances outwith our control.

I know many of you were looking forward to the evening, and I am incredibly disappointed as I had been so excited to welcome autistic women together for an evening of Prosecco, puzzles, conversation and beautiful Edinburgh views. πŸ’•πŸ₯‚

However, this is not the end of the event. ✨

I am already looking for an alternative venue and hope to announce a new location and date as soon as possible. My aim remains exactly the same: to create a relaxed, welcoming space where autistic women can meet, connect, unwind and simply be themselves. 🌸

All ticket holders will receive a full refund through Eventbrite. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to get in touch.

Thank you so much for your support, understanding and encouragement. It means a great deal to me. πŸ’—

Please keep an eye on the Autistic Girl page for updates, and I hope to have some positive news to share very soon.

Love,

Kat πŸ’•

A few weeks ago I started meal prepping, and honestly, my autistic brain absolutely loves it. πŸ’•βœ¨

I don't meal prep every single meal because I like to keep things realistic. Instead, I make sure I always have two healthy bowls ready each day. πŸ₯—πŸ“

As an autistic woman, I find there are already so many decisions to make in a day.

Having healthy food prepared in advance means one less thing to think about. It gives me a sense of routine and calm. 🌸

I've noticed that when I know exactly what's in the fridge, I feel less overwhelmed and more in control of my week.

It's a small thing, but it has made a surprisingly big difference to my wellbeing. πŸ’–

My glass meal prep containers came from Amazon and I love them because I can see exactly what's inside.

There's something very satisfying about opening the fridge and seeing everything neatly organised. ✨🩷

For anyone who is autistic and struggles with executive functioning, planning meals or remembering to eat healthy foods, meal prepping might be worth a try.

You don't need to prepare every meal or become a fitness influencer overnight. Even preparing one or two healthy meals in advance can make life that little bit easier. 🌷

Remember: routines aren't boring. Sometimes they're the gentle support system that helps us thrive. πŸ’•

🌸 Small steps.
🌸 Less stress
🌸 A calmer mind.

To all my autistic girlies: your love of organisation isn't something to hide. It can be one of your greatest strengths. πŸ’–βœ¨

πŸ‘πŸ’• Back home with our gorgeous dogs and honestly, I think they deserve employee of the month awards. πŸΆπŸ†

Things my dogs do better than most humans:

🐾 Never judge me for wearing the same comfy outfit three days in a row.

🐾 Listen to my problems without offering completely unhelpful advice.

🐾 Think every snack is exciting.
🐾 Get genuinely excited when I come back from taking the bins out.

🐾 Understand that sometimes sitting quietly together is the perfect social activity.

🐾 Never ask, "Why are you so quiet?" πŸ˜‚

🐾 Have mastered the art of napping without feeling guilty about it.

🐾 Remind me that a walk and some fresh air can make a difficult day feel a little brighter. πŸŒ³β˜€οΈ

πŸ’– A little reminder for my fellow autistic women:

You don't need to be the loudest person in the room to be important.
You don't need to have everything figured out to be successful.
You don't need to change who you are to deserve friendship, kindness, and happiness.

Sometimes the most wonderful things in life are the simplest: a cosy blanket, a cup of tea, a loyal dog, and people who love you exactly as you are. πŸ«–πŸΆπŸ’•

As the saying goes:

✨ "Be yourself; everyone else is already taken." – Oscar Wilde

Now if you'll excuse me, I have two very important supervisors making sure I don't move from the sofa. πŸΆπŸ‘‘πŸΆπŸ˜‚

🌸✨ Clearing Out My Childhood Home… and Finding More Than Just Old Stuff ✨🌸

This week I’ve been helping clear out my childhood home, and honestly… I expected to find old toys, random keepsakes, and enough forgotten hair accessories to open a small Claire’s Accessories. πŸ˜‚πŸŽ€

What I didn’t expect was how many memories would come flooding back.

As an autistic woman who wasn’t diagnosed until adulthood, so many of those memories were tied to feeling different, misunderstood, and wondering why life seemed so much harder for me than it did for everyone else. πŸ’•

Sometimes I would find an old school item and physically feel a sharp pain in my chest as difficult memories came rushing back.

But amongst all of that, I realised something important. 🌷

We can’t change the past. We can’t go back and give our younger selves the understanding and support we needed. But we can choose what we do with those experiences now.

Every challenge, every awkward moment, every time we felt like we didn’t fit in can become something valuable if it helps another autistic girl feel less alone. πŸ’–

Life is so short. It flies by faster than we realise. πŸ¦‹

Holding onto hurt only makes the suitcase heavier, and I think it's okay to unpack some of that baggage and leave it behind. ✨

To every autistic woman reading this: your story matters, your younger self deserved kindness, and your future does not have to be defined by your past. πŸŒΈπŸ’•

And if you happen to find an embarrassing school photo while clearing out your childhood home... just remember that destroying evidence is sometimes self-care. πŸ˜‚πŸ“ΈπŸ’…

Or better yet, flatten it with a tractor like we did πŸ˜‚
