Reframing Neurodiversity

34. New Year, Real Me- Embracing Authenticity and Transformation


Listen Later

In this episode, I reflect on the energy of the new year and how it can often feel like a time of pressure to change quickly, especially for those of us who are neurodivergent. Let's talk about moving away from rigid resolutions and embracing a gentler, more intentional approach to creating the life we want. Together, we explore the core wounds many neurodivergent people carry—like feeling unseen or misunderstood—and how these can lead to patterns like people-pleasing and perfectionism.

You'll learn:

  • Why traditional New Year’s resolutions may not align with neurodivergent minds and how to set more intentional goals
  • The core wounds many neurodivergent people carry, such as feeling unseen, misunderstood, or alone, and how they impact our lives
  • How survival mechanisms like people-pleasing and perfectionism develop and keep us from living authentically
  • The importance of befriending your nervous system to break free from old patterns and feel safe being your true self
  • Practical steps to shift self-limiting beliefs and create more aligned, meaningful connections in your life
  • Why showing compassion and curiosity toward yourself is key to embracing your unique gifts
