About this listen

Misunderstood your whole life, ashamed, lost, lonely and struggling to cope? Exhausted from trying, but never quite managing, to fit in? Welcome to the Late Discovered Club, home to thousands of late discovered autistic women.

Late discovery can be life-changing—a lifetime of mysteries finally making sense. But there can also be a deep accompanying sense of grief. This is a book about coming home to yourself.

Catherine's empathetic guidance will help you advocate for yourself with a greater degree of self-awareness. With chapters on everything from masking, mental health, meltdowns, and menopause, to burnout, sensory processing, emotions, relationships, and work—this will help you to nurture your strengths as an autistic woman.

You are not alone.

Catherine Asta has created an incredibly powerful and affirming book with lots of prompts for the reader to examine and understand their own experience and curate a way of being that makes sense to them.
What an amazing project. Between this and her podcast she has empowered so many women in previously unimaginable ways. To be seen and understood and having the language for our experiences is no small thing after navigating decades without that. I’m certain she has changed many lives for the better exponentially.

Amazing resource

I would have liked to hear more about coping mechanisms (unhealthy ones that have been overcome) and self regulation

This book has been fantastic to listen to. As a newly diagnosed person with ASD and possible ADHD at the age of 52, I found the book and its contents so familiar with just about every penny dropping moment possible. Catherine Asta speaks with such honesty and a wealth of knowledge. I absolutely recommend this book to anyone who has received a diagnosis of autism late in life. The book is so good, I binge listened to it in one day and on the release date.

Amazing book 🤩

This is an honest, almost soul baring experience of late diagnosis of autism in women. But it’s more than that, it’s an account of a woman who has lived through it; who is also a highly qualified and experienced professional in the fields of psychology and psychotherapy. The author tells her story and uses it to help the reader navigate their own journey through late diagnosis, with a supportive and informative approach. As a recently diagnosed 50 year old, I have found so much comfort in hearing accounts that resonate so clearly with my own. I’ve a long way to go but I’m so glad I found this book at the right time for me, and will no doubt be referring back to it time and time again.

As an aside, the preview of the audiobook wasn’t especially helpful, as it only covered the author’s opening appreciation of important people in her life, rather than an glimpse of the way the book was written. Fortunately I found a longer clip on YouTube, and once I heard more of Catherine’s story, I felt compelled to come back to Audible and purchase this audiobook. I’ve since bought a paper copy too, as I know it will be a useful reference.

Enlightening

As a late discovered autistic menopausal woman I resonated with so much that Catherine said. It was great listening to this on my daily commute but I have also bought a hard copy so I can go back and more easily reread sections and share with others. Essential reading for any autistic woman.
