Thankyou
Massive Congratulations on what we know will be the beginnings of your epic Em-pire! I got unexpectedly teary when you said that the reason we are here is because we have been ‘othered’ in some way..because you are 100% correct! We feel safe and honoured to be in your space - you are our people. I am 34 and in the middle of an ADHD / Autism diagnosis and fuck it feels good to be in a community where being a little bit cray cray is just the norm! You might feel yuck talking numbers, but the honestly is so refreshing and makes us all want to support you and your team even more. My question is simply this…what’s the subscription numbers!?
Bloody Love Ya!
You really got me when you spoke of feeling "other". That's exactly it. My whole life. Just wanted to give you a big congratulations and a thank you. I've loved you since I first heard you on radio. I went to your shows in Sydney and then listened to Emsolation non stop. You and Michael kept me from losing the plot with a newborn in lockdown. You are the reason I got my ADHD diagnosis last year at 34 and my life is so much better. So of course I have subscribed! You are the only podcast I will subscribe to! Ok sorry it's 330am and I have subjected you to my sleep deprived, night shift nursing ADHD brain waffle. Oh Right a question...can you and Michael please come to Sydney and do a show?? <3
You deserve to be proud of your impact
I know you’re very humble and get a bit uncomfortable about it. But has it sunk if yet, just how massive and positive an impact your national press club speech and voice has had on the ND community (myself included in this). Thank you for everything you do. Please feel proud, you’ve done an amazing thing, you fucking queen! I’m about 18 months diagnosed ADHD at 34 and you were a massive part of this and I thank you deeply. ❤️
You had me at Hello
Would follow you anywhere Em, have been since your Perth radio days. Your humble little podcast changed my life and helped me to feel not so alone while going through some pretty heavy stuff healthwise that’s turned my world upside down. Just a quick question where will we have access to the preshow meetings, is that part of the Close Friends list on Insta or is that on here?
A lovenundrum question
I think I spelt lovenundrum wrong but you get the idea. I have been on a few (what I thought was) dates with an amazing woman (I am also a woman). We hit it off and gel so well and can talk for hours on end about everything and anything, including spending an entire day together. We text each other most days as well. I definitely feel like there is more there but on our most recent dinner, a workmate of hers joined us for the last hour. I know this workmate is straight and also engaged, they are just really good friends. We sat around talking and laughing which was great. But I'm trying to figure out if I am friend-zoned or how I work out if there is more there? Maybe I just have to ask her direct but I am so bad at these things. While I have had the odd brief gay relationship that last a month or 2 but then fizzle out, I really want this one to work. She is truly amazing. Do I just go for the friend angle and see if it progresses one day? Please help me out. Thanks....a confused lesbian.
Favourite guilty comfort food?
Please hit me with your favourite guilty comfort foods? the food you will scoff down when nobody else is watching. Me personally and as weird as this is about to sound - Jatz crackers, jalapeño hummus and tinned smoked oysters (don't knock it until you try it).
GOOD FOR YOU BABE 💜
First of all…WELL DONE YOU GORGEOUS SPARKLY MAGIC SPICY BRAIN QUEEN! So excited and happy with your fantabulous news 💜👏🏼💜 Can you recommend the best app to listen to your podcasts now please? I have a monthly paid Spotify subscription but would like to know your thoughts. I know Michael mentioned Pocket Casts and I’m looking into that but apart from you and another person I listen to and follow religiously, I rarely use the app and would like to find a cheaper or better alternative! Thank you darling and cannot wait to hear you, Michael and the team at Emsolation Extra…Extra…Extra 😬💜😬
Emsolator Feature
OK so I have no idea really how this would work OR if it would be financially beneficial for either of us (as it would be very small scale ) BUT I imagine a lot of Emsolators own small creative businesses (like myself) or like to shop/support said kind of businesses & struggle to grown their audience or even be seen by the people who might like their wares. How much would it cost to advertise with Emsolation Extra? I'm not talking full blown ad (I imagine that is waaaay out of my budget)... just the opportunity for a shout out? Not asking for personal recomendations ... just say each week a mention of 3-5 Emsolators small businesses. Emsolators support you & you support them right back?
Why?
Why do you feel the need to apologise for asking us (your following) to pay up & subscribe? You create amazing content & deserve to be paid. So Why do you feel the need to apologise for it? Pls stop doing that. But pls dont stop being f*cken amazing... ps. love the use of the C bomb in the first ep.. bravo queen x
ASD and ADHD in VCE Psych
Just wanted to say thanks for talking so openly about ADHD and ASD. It has been introduced into the VCE Unit 1/2 Psychology course this year and your insights made it so much easier for me to present the content to my students in a meaningful way. My son also recently got diagnosed with ADHD and you have helped me to understand his magic brain a little better. Xoxo
