Joining Catherine is Trudi Murray - an artist, illustrator, writer, and a wife, mother, sister, daughter, friend, and proud granny.
Diagnosed autistic at 47, Trudi now sees her lifelong creative work as a map of self-discovery, a visual language she was speaking long before she had the words to understand it.
In this episode, Trudi reflects on how her art carried the essence of her autistic identity long before discovery and diagnosis.
From paintings that unknowingly explored the concept of masking, to her deep love for telling the unsung stories of women in history, her creativity has always been a window into her inner world.
Her late discovery was sparked by a move to a new city and the fresh reflections of new connections.
With raw honesty and gentle wisdom, Trudi shares the grief and clarity that came with rediscovering herself and how that insight is helping her live more authentically, both in her creative work and in her part-time role coordinating social transformation projects.
This is a conversation about identity, creativity, self-compassion, and the transformative power of being seen.
Masking less, belonging more, and creating a kinder world for ourselves, and for the generations coming after us.
