I was excited for the opportunity to interview my friend Stephanie Robertson about her journey navigating mental health and neurodivergence. Our conversation covered topics like misdiagnosis and ADHD, her experiences in law school, mental health and neurodivergence in the workplace, DEI, disclosing neurodivergence, and the power of authenticity.
