Episode 135 with Diana Costea.

“Society wants us to focus on one thing and do it well, but that will never be me.”

Diana is a 22-year-old from Romania. She has a degree in psychology and is currently volunteering in Turkey as a youth worker and English teacher with the European Solidarity Corps Program.

Diana discovered her ADHD a little over a year ago, and since then, she feels she finally has the courage to allow herself to be different and instead of minimizing or masking it, to befriend her neurodivergence and help others see the world through different angles.

Diana has also started a career as a personal development coach, where she supports and guides young or aspiring entrepreneurs in their career journeys.

We talk about authenticity & radical acceptance, learning how to ask for help, and finding and developing our own paths, despite what others might expect from us.
