I’ve grown so much professionally because of your videos. They’ve given me confidence that I never thought I could attain in the 46 years I’ve lived. Thank you so much for the good you do for people like me.
I had my first public speaking last May... It was a success thanks to Kara's video, which have been giving me the confidence I need. Last week I had my second public speaking...some of the attenders gave me compliments. I'm 47 and before watching Kara's video I didn't have enough courage to leave my comfort zone. In the future I will try to give a public speaking in English (I'm Italian)😀
I feel like a disgrace. Today at work was awful. I was taken to my supervisor's office with her and a high-ranking chef. They (or mostly the chef) told me that I've been touching my coworkers too much. Not THAT type of touch, of course not! Just casual ones, like on arms or shoulders. I was always very outgoing at work. When I asked her if anyone reported a complaint, she said it didn't matter. She told me that we need the workers to be comfortable in a good work environment, and that I pretty much shouldn't talk about anything other than work and school (I work at a university's catering service). She told me I shouldn't tell my stories because they may be inappropriate to my coworkers. Now yeah, I pretty much don't have a filter, and sometimes I guess I do say inappropriate stuff at work, but not horribly nor intentionally. I like to joke around and have fun with my coworkers, but I guess it isn't like that after all (more or less). I really didn't get specific information from the chef about what and who. She understands and likes that I'm outgoing, but she made it sound risky and in need of limits, for good behavior and my coworkers' sake. And again, that I shouldn't touch my coworkers (shoulders or arms) without their consent. But seriously, I'm not a creep! I don't randomly hug people or anything like that. I didn't mean to be so "handsy" (I say loosely). I'm so embarrassed about the office lecture. I am not like Biden at all. I'm really not. Have I really gone that far at work? I already hate being on the spectrum, and sometimes I actually hate myself. I wish I could work somewhere, not only for my coworkers' sake (should that presumption be true) and myself, because I'm so ashamed.
I can imagine it's a difficult position to be in to receive that kind of feedback from your boss. I would take the approach that what's in the past is in the past and focus on what you can do/change in the future. Take your boss's suggestions into account. And try to keep your head up. Focus on showing how you're meeting her expectations and I'm sure she'll respond positively.

Some valuable points. Especially learning new skills.
Thanks for watching! Have you ever done a strengths test? If so, what were your top strengths?
Kara these things make me angry that you still having doubt in me
Why I need do more and better if people having doubting on me ?
I'm not dwelling on negative discouraging thoughts, that will destroy my confidence. Period!! I'm bold and well spoken
The tip about negative talk is eye-opening. I'm going to use it next time I have a negative thought.
Eye contact is very good.
