About

Haley Moss is an attorney, author, speaker, and neurodiversity advocate. She’s also autistic. After being admitted to the Florida Bar in 2019 and going viral as Florida’s first openly autistic attorney, Haley left private law practice to start her own business to bring accessible neurodiversity education to organizations of all kinds. For Haley, neurodiversity is where the personal meets the professional as she leads the charge towards greater acceptance and inclusion in an approachable, fun, and interesting way. She presents individual programs and events and hosts longer courses and workshops. Haley is also available to consult on long-term neurodiversity projects.

Services

  • Talking the Talk About Neurodiversity: Sharing, Disclosing, and Telling Your Story

    Disclosure is deeply personal—and often complicated. In this session, Haley explores how neurodivergent people can navigate conversations about disability, whether sharing with colleagues, managers, educators, family members, or those they support. The focus is on agency, self-advocacy, and reframing disability from a place of heritage and knowledge rather than shame. Designed primarily for neurodivergent audiences (with allies welcome), this session offers guidance on navigating varied reactions, setting boundaries, and deciding when—and how—to tell one’s story. Participants are encouraged to reflect on their own disclosure journeys and leave feeling more confident in owning and communicating their identities. As an optional add-on, organizations may include signed copies of Talking the Talk About Autism: How to Share and Tell Your Story, providing participants with a practical resource to continue reflection and learning beyond the session. This session can be adapted into a 45-minute, 60-minute, or up to 90-minute format. These estimates include time for Q&A.

  • Faith, Identity, and Access: Exploring the Intersection of Being Jewish and Neurodivergent Fireside Chat

    Disability, faith, and identity are often discussed separately—but for many people, they are deeply intertwined. In this session, Haley explores the lived experience of being both Jewish and neurodivergent, unpacking how disability intersects with faith, culture, community, and belonging. Drawing from personal experience and broader disability inclusion work, Haley examines barriers to access within religious and cultural spaces, the nuances of identity visibility, and what inclusion can look like when faith communities and workplaces commit to accessibility beyond compliance. This conversation creates space for reflection, curiosity, and dialogue—particularly in a moment when many Jewish employees are navigating complex questions of identity and safety at work. This session can be adapted into a 45-minute, 60-minute, or up to 90-minute format. These estimates include time for Q&A.

  • Under the Double Rainbow: Navigating the Intersection of Neurodivergent and LGBTQ+ Identities Fireside Chat

    Neurodivergent and LGBTQ+ identities frequently intersect, yet these conversations are often siloed. In this session, Haley explores what it means to live “under the double rainbow,” drawing from lived experience to discuss identity, disclosure, belonging, and visibility across personal and professional spaces. This thoughtful, engaging conversation invites participants to examine shared themes—such as masking, safety, and self-acceptance—while creating space for reflection, connection, and curiosity. The session is especially well-suited for Pride Month programming and intersectional ERG collaboration. This session can be adapted into a 45-minute, 60-minute, or up to 90-minute format. These estimates include time for Q&A.

  • (CE-Eligible) The Language of Disability and Inclusion Revolution Workshop

    Disability is often excluded—or mishandled—in broader inclusion conversations, largely due to discomfort, stigma, and uncertainty around language. In this foundational session, Haley leads a clear, accessible exploration of disability language, ableism, and inclusion, grounded in both lived experience and legal context. Participants will examine common misconceptions, learn how language shapes access and belonging, and better understand barriers to disability inclusion. This session is especially well-suited for organizations seeking a strong 101-level program that balances education with practical application and can be adapted for continuing education credit. This session can be adapted into a 45-minute, 60-minute, or up to 90-minute format. These estimates include time for Q&A.

  • Autistic Masking and the Hidden Labor of Neurodivergent Women Keynote

    Autistic masking—suppressing natural behaviors, communication styles, or needs in order to appear more “acceptable”—is a survival strategy many autistic people develop. For women and other gender-marginalized individuals, masking often comes with an added layer of emotional and social labor that goes unseen and unrecognized. In this keynote, Haley Moss explores autistic masking through the lived experience of neurodivergent women, drawing connections to burnout, performance expectations, identity, and safety at work. The session examines why masking develops, the toll it can take over time, and what meaningful allyship looks like in practice. This session is especially well-suited for Women’s ERGs, disability ERGs, and intersectional inclusion initiatives. Participants are encouraged to reflect on how workplace norms can unintentionally reinforce masking—and how organizations can create environments where authenticity and access are supported. This session can be adapted into a 45-minute, 60-minute, or up to 90-minute format. These estimates include time for Q&A.

  • Assembly Required: My Journey From Nonspeaking to Attorney Keynote + 50 Signed Books

    In this deeply personal and candid session, Haley shares her journey from being diagnosed as autistic at age three—when expectations for her future were limited—to becoming an attorney, author, and advocate. Rather than offering a simplified narrative, Haley explores the realities of growth, uncertainty, support systems, and self-discovery across different stages of life. This conversation is especially meaningful for parents, caregivers, and allies seeking perspective from an autistic adult who has navigated education, independence, and professional life firsthand. The session offers reflection, reframing, and reassurance—centering honesty, complexity, and lived experience rather than inspiration tropes. This session includes 50 signed copies of The Young Autistic Adult’s Independence Handbook, providing participants with a practical, forward-looking resource they can return to after the event. Additional copies may be purchased upon request, and all additional books will also be signed. This session can be adapted into a 45-minute, 60-minute, or up to 90-minute format. These estimates include time for Q&A.
