You're the facilitator, and that's an awesome way to use your strengths in a setting that could easily lead to overwhelm.
Nice! 😎
(Just thinking about being that dot in the center of the circle makes me twitchy)

@barefootrambling@autistics.life @autistics@fedigroups.social thank you :) Sometimes it's exhausting, but still feels better for me than watching from the sidelines. I am also not subjected to the same scrutiny regarding "normal" behaviour as the center, which is liberating. But I understand why that might be different for you. Good that you seem to have a way which works for you! There is a german word for my brand of extrovert: Rampensau. Literal translation would be stage pig. I use it jokingly - not everybody needs to see me, and I am happy to share the stage with everybody. But still, I feel far more relaxed on it than what many people have expressed to me.
