Louise Stewart embodies what it means to love another with passion, heart and seeing others just as they are. Louise is an artist and creator. She sparkles in her passion for art and shares her gifts and talents in The Autistic Art Club as one of 3 facilitators led by the fabulous Zoe McCormack.
Social Autie: What is your specialty or focus area of Autism Advocacy?
Louise: My focus for autism advocacy is art & being creative as a way for other autistic individuals to meet.
Social Autie: Why did you begin advocating for yourself and others? What makes this personal to you and Your Big Why?
Louise: I was late diagnosed at nearly 31 and I want people to understand that this does not make me any less autistic, in fact I am able to focus more on my art and finding the art club gave me this opportunity.
Social Autie: What is/are the top tip(s) or insight(s) you have discovered for advocating for a) others and b) yourself?
Louise: That even though we all have similar experiences in life & diagnosis every person is individual and their stories are unique. We are all amazing!

No one seems to ‘get it’. Friends and family think you just need to push through or "self-care" more. Internally, so many people in late identified life (me included) feel broken, ashamed or like they are failing or have never reached their full potential, when all along they've had a brain and sensory system that is different from the masses. It can take a lot of strength to keep going.
(It was years before I realized I had been on The Chronic Cycle Burnout Loop)
Living Burnout, Shutdown and Meltdown FREE for going on 4 years now has taught me more than I ever dreamed possible and the most powerful experience in Restoration has been regaining skills and abilities I thought were lost permanently to Burnout decades ago.
