Behaviour/Co-regulation

Welcome to Episode 2 of Season 5 of the Yellow Ladybugs Podcast series.This episode describes how behaviour is often misunderstood—especially for autistic girls and gender-diverse young people whose needs may be hidden or internalised. Rather than seeing behaviour as something to manage or fix, we explore how it's actually a form of communication.We unpack why traditional behaviour approaches often fall short, and why co-regulation—meeting young people with calm, connection, and curiosity—is a more effective and neuro-affirming path forward.
