As we navigate the complexities of daily adult life as neurodivergent individuals, it's essential to recognize the unique challenges we encounter and the importance of advocating for our needs.
In this episode, Caitlin Liz Fisher draws from personal experiences to shed light on the art of seeking support and assistance in various aspects of life. They will also touch on misconceptions around asking for help vs seeking permission, and how to shift towards collaborative problem-solving.
From navigating workplace accommodations to addressing communication challenges in personal relationships, this discussion offers valuable insights for both neurodivergent individuals and those seeking to understand and support them.
Episode Highlights:
- Practicing the art of asking for help before reaching a critical point
- The difference between asking for help vs asking for permission
- Why we need to challenge existing societal norms around asking for accommodations and advocate for a more inclusive approach
Noteworthy Quote:
"Accommodations help us in advance so that we do not have to hit a point of burnout."
“At the end of the day, we need to reframe how we ask… because ask is not always, ‘Can I have permission?’ Ask is not always ‘yes or no,’ there’s also this language around asking.
