Good question! Let's lay the foundation by first covering the term neurodiversity. This is the idea that, as humans, we all interact and experience the world around us through a different lens. Meaning, we all think, act, feel and function in our own way. There is no person out there exactly like you. You are a unique little bean!

Now, some of us are neurotypical - meaning the way our brain and body function is considered standard in our society. While others of us resonate with being neurodivergent - we differ from the average in terms of how we learn, process, communicate or engage.

To identify as neurodivergent does NOT require a diagnosis but many of us connect with one (or two, or three) such as anxiety, ADHD, depression, autism, trauma, OCD and so many others. We can acquire our divergence at birth or throughout our lifespan but in either instance, society and our environment don't always support our differing needs. Without support, we often lack internal safety.

When we lack internal safety, our ability to socialize, focus, regulate our emotions, be organized and flexible can feel out-of-reach. As you can imagine, limited access to these skills makes our day-to-day lives much more difficult. The good news: You can still create an inner safety, discover your deeper self and be in the driver-seat of your life.
If I can do it, you can too.
