In this urgent episode of TwoX Labs, Dr. Erika Miley talks with neurodivergent therapist Laura Tewel, MA, LMFT, CMHS about what’s happening right now: From proposals like an autism registry to the spread of misinformation and surveillance tactics, autistic and neurodivergent people are facing real systemic threats in 2025.
Together, we unpack:
-
What’s actually happening at the policy level (and why it matters)
-
How racialized ableism makes Black and Brown autistic folks even more vulnerable
-
What therapists and healthcare providers need to do now to protect, support, and advocate
-
How to hold space for clients’ fear and anger — while managing your own
💡 If you serve neurodivergent clients, this is required listening. Let’s stop pretending this isn’t political — your documentation, your language, and your advocacy can make a real difference.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
