The foods you choose can either boost your body’s natural healing process or, if you’re not careful, cause more swelling, bruising, and even delay…
I’ve been a green tea drinker for almost 20 years, and over that time I’ve learned something important — Japanese and Chinese green teas are not the same. At first glance they might look similar, but once you start paying attention to their flavour, colour, and even how they’re made, the differences are clear.
In this guide, we’ll look at what sets them apart, which one might be better…

Higher education has never been more accessible, but accessibility does not automatically mean readiness. When we talk about college readiness, the conversation often focuses on academic performance. Yet, the reality is that many college students, regardless of background, arrive on…
Starting college can be exciting but also overwhelming. For most students, it’s a big life change. For someone who doesn’t yet know they are autistic, this transition can be even harder. I began my freshman year without understanding my own neurodivergence. It wasn’t until that year that I started to uncover my identity as an autistic person. This process came with confusion, self-doubt…

Over the years, my role has gone far beyond helping people communicate—it has become a mission to advocate for understanding, inclusion, and respect for neurodiversity. This year, I decided to take that mission beyond the therapy room by running the Big Sur…
Growing up, I always felt different from everyone else. I was diagnosed with Asperger’s as a child, and later re-diagnosed with autism after high school. School life often made me feel like no one truly understood what I was going through.
