Pivoting from the heavy stuff to talk about something I genuinely love — the products in my routine that have earned their spot. In this episode, I'm walking you through my holy grails across skincare, makeup, hair, and body. The stuff I repurchase without thinking, the underrated finds, what's worth the splurge, and what's a dupe that beats the original. No sponsorships, no gatekeeping, just an honest tour of what's currently working in my life. Bring your notes app. info@maniccandice.com

Can hot people be autistic? It started as an unserious question and turned into a deeply serious one. In this episode, I get into the halo effect — the cognitive bias that makes us assume attractive people have it together — and why that bias is part of the reason so many women, AFAB folks, and "high-functioning" adults go undiagnosed for decades. We're talking masking, misdiagnosis, the BPD-to-autism pipeline, what late diagnosis actually feels like, and why "high-functioning" might just mean "skilled at acting." If you've ever felt like everyone else got a manual you never received, this one's for you.Info@maniccandice.com
