If you’ve ever binge-watched Love on the Spectrum (let’s be honest—who hasn’t?), you already know and love Kaelynn Partlow — the sharp, funny, and deeply insightful advocate whose story stole our hearts in season 1. 

In this episode, Kristen sits down with Kaelynn for an unforgettable, no-filter conversation about Autism, ADHD, identity, and what it’s really like to live life on the bridge between two neurotypes.

Kaelynn opens up about:

  • Why she “wasn’t autistic enough for TV”
  • Why she feels she's hard to live with 
  • What her day-to-day looks like behind the scenes — from hyperfocus to burnout and everything in between
  • Her newly updated book, Life on the Bridge, and how she’s using her platform to reframe the way we think about neurodiversity
  • This isn’t a conversation about labels — it’s about living boldly in the in-between. Kaelynn’s honesty and humor will challenge everything you think you know about Autism, ADHD, and what it means to belong.
