An Autistic Person having Coffee with You

- This week was a busy - Woodshed Theory (as in I) had a big drop for the Etsy shop and I spent many many hours preparing for it. Being an #autistic person trying their hand at becoming an #entrepreneur has been fulfilling and challenging endeavor. Let's talk about how everything went and what is coming up this week.

I'm now a member. Love the sing talk. You got a "soft way". I never feel stressed listening. ❤️
welcome to the members club! I am happy to have you
I’ve had less energy available to respond in the comments so to all newly diagnosed sub’s congratulations on the diagnosis. (If you are puzzled why we congratulate newly diagnosed autists feel free to ask me)
Guys she’s been sewing so much shorts she must have a whole collection by now. I just wish I didn’t have to wash them all. lol.
I was able to do some gardening, other than that I did a lot of resting this week. I want to say I’m better but I’m still low energy. The best remedy is resting when needed and in my case sleeping at odd times. My brain likes before dinner naps for some reason.
I have an impromptu therapy appointment today hopefully after that appointment I will have the energy to watch the sewing box video. I’m not telling anyone anything new when I say I love the crafting videos. And I’m a big guy so I probably count for two lol.
Have a good week Claire and friends.
I have so many shorts I don't have room for any more shorts lol - the sewing box video is very relaxing
Life is more than algorithms, likes, and followers. Keep doing what makes you happy Claire!. Really looking forward to a new episode of A.P.T with Ty, she is also an awesome person an make great content🙂!
She is AMAZING!
Keep making the crafty vids. I would watch more of them to help you out, but my neurodivergent kiddos come first. Then work, my own neurodivergent issues, volunteer work, household chores... Ack, I'm working myself up just thinking about everything that needs done yet. Anywho, I usually have vids running in the background for me to listen too if not watch while my hands are busy with other things. But between you, Taylor, Orion, Jenn, some news channels, educational channels, nerd stuff, and all the music makers I follow; I just don't have time to watch everything. 'Porch Coffee' has become kind of a ritual for me kicking off each new week, so thanks for being here for us, for me.
Oh yes the kiddos come first! No pressure to watch all the videos
Agreed, life is very busy & the routine of Porch Coffee is appreciated ❤
Indeed, Porch Coffee is so unique and I’ve set the bell to alert me to everything now. Also…WOW thank you for writing your schedule out like this!!! I feel you on this busy schedule!!! You have the perfect 4 podcasters of this community listed. Orion was my intro and frankly made me feel sane when I learned I was high functioning ASD. Everyone else is relatively new because I learned of them through the roast Claire and Jenn did of Orion’s burnout. 😂 Although inertia may have hold of you now, I hope you find some time to unwind and sit in peace. Not an easy thing to do and then get back up from sometimes. 😂 Sending you some good vibes for this busy schedule.
"Porch coffee mugs in our hearts" 😂
Hearts full of mugs
Thanks for another porch coffee!!! I loved the vintage sewing box video - and the fashion plate drawing was amazing. Hope everyone has a great week!!! ✨🐇✨☕✨
Thanks Linda have a good week
A masking coffee mug 😂
😂😂😂
Good morning! I’m so glad you did well on your hat drop! And Congrats on the sewing machine, that’s awesome! My week was really busy but I managed to enjoy a quiet, relaxing day yesterday. Happy week everyone😊
That is funny!
The tour went well last week! This week, the school is on spring break, so I'm taking my son for a tour. I'm nervous, but I have support with me. If all goes well, he will start next month! I will keep you all posted.
Looking forward to your collab with Taylor! Have a great week, Claire and friends! 💞
Yay! I hope it goes smoothly 💙
Whitney I am so excited to hear this - sounds like things are finally moving in the right direction after all this time
Good morning!
Morning! thanks for showing up!
7 new mugs in 1 week? That's enough for every day of the week...even though we only do porch coffee on Mondays...
7 mugs is a lot! very exciting
new sticker.... Green. That's all i got 😸 my new hat should get here today!! 🌈stay fabulous and thanks for all you do! 🌈🦄🥔
I am so glad that the hat made it ok! It is so cool!
Congrats on what sounds like a very successful and awesome week Claire! ☺️
Yes it was awesome it just took a lot out of me I think
I had brunch with you this morning, because I will be going to take a certification exam soon. I hate testing. I get horrible test anxiety. Thank you for having this coffee talk. I really enjoy them. The one today was a nice distraction.
Good luck on your test
I love your crafty videos especially the ones about yarn! 🧶 I can’t wait for the podcast with mom on the spectrum or the livestream!
i KNOW you love the yarn videos - we have the same love for yarn!
I clicked on this video because it had no views
And I remember you ft. A ytber that I follow
I'm glad the Autism translator is working this morning. I usually use the Bing Autism translator.
hahah. i wish i could use the translator more
Love the “imposter mug” ☕️ 🤪
Welcome back Imposter Mug.
The mug I'm using for my tea is the same colour as your imposter mug....dark green.
I'm glad your business is goin well!
Yay for your own sewing machine!!!
I got my sewing machine back on Friday. It was nearly $100 for a tune-up but apparently it works well now... it's about 20 years old and things were out of alignment, which is why it was skipping stitches.
I watch everything. I'm not a yarn/crochet person, but I like crafts and do sewing, so I'm interested in crafty stuff and it's interesting to see the deals you get at craft/sewing stores and through thrifting.
Yay for Taylor on the podcast!
Glad your machine is back home
Keep doing what you enjoy doing Claire, love the channel. Thanks for having coffee with me this afternoon....migrane all day for me and was pounding this morning so I didn't watch when I normally do ....Taylor podcast guest should be a fun one, yay. 😊
Feel better soon

And I remember you ft. A ytber that I follow
thanks!
Good morning. So thrilled for the success and the sewing machine. Treasure box opening sounds fun! Ooh, New Dior! I saw the vid on my feed and saved it to watch when I can. My week...my life is kind of hard at present. Probably for the long term related to my oldest kiddo. Don't have as much time to get here as a result but happy when I do. You bring me needed smiles. Thank you. Blessings on your week. ❤
No pressure ever to be here at any specific time - I get people have things they need to deal with - The videos will always be here.
Hmmm I'm not really allowed to do anything until lent is over growing out my dreads (just starting maybe have 4 inches of hair to werk with),but I have been piling up for the days leading after
I got a Woodshed Theory sticker with my hat so I’ll now put that on my mug. Thanks for the tip! Your packaging is just lovely and the thank you note was touching to get. I appreciated that a lot.
ahh that would be a good use for the sticker!
@@WoodshedTheory 🤩
Oh! I like Taylor so much! I am exited!
She’s great
I only clicked on this video because it had no views in 17min
And I remember you ft.a ytber that I follow with acoustic ear rings( and I forgot the channels name)
oh wow thanks for the support - maybe Meg? she always has cool earrings
Awesome !!! Congrats !!! On new sewing machine !!! 💞👊
thank you i have been waiting a long time for to get the machine
I love the crafting videos! Keep doing what you love!
Thank you! 😊
I love the crafty videos as well even though I am not into yarn and crochet. My week was not great. My youngest son picked me up, squeezed me, and broke my rib and then a few days later I had to help my eldest son move to a different city. I am worried about my eldest living alone as he is an AuDHD person with extreme executive functioning issues and is also in a very controlling long distance relationship. Today I am in a lot of pain but have to help my autistic elderly Mother out and drive her to a few places and also somehow pack and ship some things that I sold over the weekend. Please send good thoughts. It is a struggle over here right now!
Oh my gosh. Sorry to hear this. You have a lot going on & I hope your rib heals. Sending lots of good thoughts to you.
oh wow my friend i am so sorry to hear this - that must have been so painful for you. it sounds like you have so much on your plate.
The imposter mug sticker is great 😂🙌
Edit: stickers of the new emojis would be cool! (the yarn ball is great!)
But I'm still holding out for a "Say less... but actually tell me exactly what you mean" sticker! 🤘😂
Ahh I forgot about that - that was so funny - it is so easy to forget things like that for so thanks for reminding me
I have an old friend reach out, they have found out they are AuDHD. How about a Mug Club Sticker?
a mug club sticker would be cool. you know what i have had several people reach out to me that were my friends growing up when they found out they were also ND
question for the podcast with Taylor for both of you: I would love to know what kind of therapies either of you have tried or found helpful *after* your diagnosis. I have been in therapy since I was 13 (36 now) for various things and have been in all kinds of modalities (group, talk, art, etc.). The only therapist that recognized my Autism was just a few years ago. It has been super healing to recognize that a lot of the things other therapists were trying to help me "fix", are just me being my autistic self and I don't need to be fixed, just accepted and better understood. It is hard being a late diagnosed woman because it seems that most of us are late diagnosed and going down this path at similar times. I feel like I need an older, wiser "autie auntie" to guide me or relate to sometimes haha.
I do find it difficult that there aren't a lot of great autism specialist in my area and I would appreciate being able to talk to someone that is a bit more educated and experienced with helping autistic people come into their own, ya know? I am just wondering if ya'll have had luck in finding good therapists, post diagnosis that really get you or if most of your healing and understanding is coming from other autistic peers. So far, I feel like I have done so much research and reading but as a late diagnosed autistic adult, it sure would be nice to have someone else who has been down this road a lot longer to talk to and guide me.
Thanks for porch coffee, it is my fave
I passed along your question :)
Sticker idea. There are stickers that have a rough surface and touching/rubbing them can be a stimming activity. I have one on my desk and on my phone.
That's a great idea! I wonder if I could get those printed hmmm
Congrats on the new sewing machine! So fun! I was actually sewing this week. I like to remake some of my jeans into shorts when the knees or hems wear out. 😊
This week had some really stressful times, but also some good times. Im in a good place right now which Im thankful.
Reworking clothing is so fun and usually pretty easy!
💖
Your hair is looking nice today. The 'natural' colour suits you.
Another pretty boring wk for us. Been trying to do more stamina building exercise and actually managed a bit more. I now have a firm Surgery date of a wk Tuesday. 🥺 I won't deny it's scary... (been more heavily dissociated because of it - I'm sure there'll be much more of that to come esp. in the hospital.)
We will be thinking out you during this time. Sorry you are having to go through this.
@@WoodshedTheory Thank you. Just been informed surgery will be delayed by one day. Now on the Weds.
Hey 👋 new sub here 😊 I love thrifting for vintage crafts!
Welcome so happy to have another crafter here!
@@WoodshedTheory thank you for the warm welcome 🤗
WTF is a "reshelfing fee"?! It's a rip off, that's what!! Looking forward to seeing what you make on your new machine 💚
I am guessing that it is to prevent people from buying a machine, using it for whatever, and then returning it. Then it is a used machine and cannot be sold again for full price.
@@faeriesmak I understand the idea of no returns if it's opened, but charging a fee just to put an unopened item back on a shelf is ridiculous!! No wonder the planet is struggling to keep up with human greed & idiocy 😖
DUDE I feel the same way. Like whoa Joann you gonna go do that to me - I feel the same like yeah okay sealed box but the reshelfing fee is dumb
@@WoodshedTheory I would offer to put the box back on the shelf myself if they tried that with me!!
I would understand the fee if it was bought from small little Mom & Pop store but not from a large corporation like Joann. That can absorb the $ from a return like that. @@WoodshedTheory
Morning ☕️ 💞👊
good morning kelly!
One of the things I can't handle right now is the comment section. My comment section that is on my channel. It's getting completely out of hand and I can't respond nor do I want to respond to some of these comments, especially ones that are disgusting, completely inappropriate, talking about incest with my son the stuff like that. Not sure how to go about it except just not respond to any of my comments anymore.
Oh wow! I am really sorry you are going through this. The crazy and inappropriate things that people think it is okay to comment really shocks me.
@@WoodshedTheory I decided to respond with humor or just not responded at all. 🤭
Beyond excited for your chat with Taylor!!!!! Jumping for joy!!! 😂🎉😂
Super excited!
You are so lovely to listen to honestly! Just found your channel and I’m happy to subscribe!!
thanks that is really kind!
+woodshedtheory *@ThePersonalDevelopmentSchool (Concord, ON, CAN) released a vid on the Dismissive Avoidant Attachment Style in detail.* The autistic default to two Attachment Styles: Dismissive Avoidant, and Fearful Avoidant.
*Addition:* Congratulations on acquisition of a sewing machine. Probably foot-compatible with SINGER® Series 15; I've two at the Byron (CA, USA) Shops in such compatibility, as well as a 1920's-vintage WHITE ROTARY® with its own feet.
I love all of your videos. Life got busy and I’m behind! About to binge ✨woooooooddddshed theoooorrryyy✨ this afternoon!
Hope you enjoy! welcome back!
One more week until my disability hearing here. I'm hoping I'll be able to calm down and focus on stuff a bit after that. Right now I'm basically only doomscrolling, sleeping, or reading.
I hope things go well at the hearing. That does sound like a lot
Lovely Porch Coke Zero episode. Looking forward to the pod with Taylor!
Yay! She’s the best
Love my sparkly hologram sticker 🎉 Hmmm, new ones maybe similar but with the shed logo? Meanwhile keep making content that makes you happy, and we will watch 😊
Oh that is a good idea
Congrats on the new sewing machine! Sorry I missed the members live, hope to make the next one
yes the replay should be up soon!
Congrats on the new sewing machine! Are you still liking your hair color? I think it really suits you.
Yes! Thank you!
We already wore the mossy mohair hat out. My son liked the feel of it. I love the stickers!
how exciting! i loved that one i am glad you are enjoying it
Root canal at the dentist today (lol, where else?) so now I'm 💥💤
fudge that sucks - i hope it goes okay and the recovery is ok
Great Porch Coffee!😁
Thanks I was thinking it was the worst lol
I absolutely loved this episode and especially the message at the end.
Thank you for being so awesome, Claire!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I was going to comment the exact same thing! Loved this one and you ARE awesome Claire!
Glad to be watching you grow your business 😊
I’m on mobile and don’t see a ‘join’ option 😞
Hi Holli! I have heard if you check on the computer browser you will probably see it - you can also go to my channel page and add /join to the address and it should come up
Yes sewing machine videos please!! Cool!
You got it!
@@WoodshedTheory yay!!
I have the Vintage Sewing Box on my watch later, I once found similar, sch a treat. Im doing autism training s lot lately for my work roles, so having crafts to watch is a treat
having a craft to relax to is so important
@@WoodshedTheory ❤️☺️
Have you considered a Discord server?
hey that would be fun...
Hi Martin - I have considered it, not sure it is right for me at this time
Video Editing is too low 👎👎👎👎
Edit the video in a good style.
Add nice b-roll animation when you are speaking or explaining something. This will increase visualization.
Put proper subtitles, effects, transitions, and colors in the video.
Insert the B-Roll (footage and animation) very well because it is absolutely low in your video.
Do all this and then see how the video doesn't turn out good.
🫖
Thanks for the ideas.
If someone says that video editing should be enhanced then I also vote "yes"
🍷
In my opinion, more attention should be paid to subtitles, transitions, effects and B-Roll.
I mean do subtitles, transitions, effects and B-Roll properly.
🌹
You guys are saying this today, right?
I have been saying this for several weeks now that you should improve your video editing.

Video editing score = 200/100
