At first, she didn’t see herself as an entrepreneur, but witnessing her students quietly struggle with everyday clothing opened her eyes to a real-but-overlooked need. One moment in particular stuck with her—a sweet, attentive student unable to line up with the class because of an itchy tag. That small frustration could have easily been mistaken for misbehavior, but Julia recognized it as a sensory issue that deserved attention. The experience lit a spark, inspiring her to blend her design skills with her empathy for her students. She began creating clothing that didn’t just look good but actually helped kids feel comfortable and included. The more she listened to students, parents, and therapists, the more driven she became to make a difference. Julia’s story is about seeing past the surface and using creativity to turn an everyday struggle into a practical solution that helps kids truly feel like themselves.,Julia never expected that her background in fashion design would collide so naturally with her time in a special education classroom. It was only after seeing firsthand how something as simple as a scratchy tag or a noisy environment could turn a good day into a meltdown that she realized how much clothing impacts learning and behavior. Instead of just accepting the status quo, she started looking for ways to make life easier for her students—and that’s where her creative spark took off. Julia didn’t just want to create clothes; she wanted to give kids and adults a way to blend in, feel confident, and participate fully without their clothing holding them back. Through countless conversations with parents, teachers, and therapists, she built a line of sensory-friendly clothing that’s not only practical but also looks just like what everyone else is wearing. For Julia, it’s all about turning empathy into action and making sure everyone gets the chance to feel comfortable in their own skin.Julias Resources:<ul><li>Visit the Sensational You website to browse and purchase sensory-friendly clothing designed for neurodivergent individuals.</li></ul><ul><li>Sign up for the Sensational You email list to receive updates on new product launches and restocks.</li><li>Follow Sensational You on social media platforms to stay informed about new designs, customer stories, and upcoming events.</li><li>Participate in Sensational You surveys or provide feedback to help improve future clothing designs and color options.</li><li>Reach out to Sensational You for collaboration opportunities, including partnerships with therapists, schools, or retail stores interested in carrying the clothing line.</li></ul>Contact Me:<ul><li>https://www.youtube.com/@AspergersStudio</li><li>https://aspergersstudio.com/</li><li>https://www.linkedin.com/in/reidmiles/</li><li>https://www.facebook.com/TheNeurodivergantConnection</li><li>https://www.twitter.com/AspergersStudio</li></ul> Hosted by Ausha.
