My guest today is Nadia Rivera.

Nadia lives and works in Tegucigalpa, Honduras, where she works for the US Embassy.

I first met Nadia in 2019, where she was training to be an adjunct faculty for the Foreign Service Institute – an add-on to her full-time job.  I didn’t know it at the time, but it had just been a matter of days since Nadia had lost her father.  She shared with me later that the training, the connections with her colleagues and the facilitators, and the information she learned about emotional intelligence was really beneficial for her own journey of growth and development.

Fast-forward to December of 2022, and I had the chance to connect with Nadia again, this time at the Adjunct Faculty Workshop.  We talked about her journey as a trainer and also how she has learned so much about neuro-diversity and her own discovery of having Autism and what that has opened up for her.  She graciously agreed to come on the podcast and share her story.

Nadia is deeply insightful and courageous as she shares these pieces of her journey, of the healing that has occurred in her family (which she has been the catalyst of), and of what she has both experienced and learned about the world of neurodiversity, autism, and more.

Nadia, thank you so very much for your willingness to share your story.  Thank you for your courage, vulnerability, and wisdom.  You are an inspiration and a light to so many!
