In this powerful and deeply personal episode, I sit down with Raquel Deville to talk about what it means to fully embrace neurodivergence. Raquel shares her journey through chronic pain, anxiety, and sensory overwhelm—and how practices like yoga, Somatic Experiencing, and TRE helped her reconnect with her body and identity.

We explore the healing that comes from self-awareness, the power of slowing down, and how honoring your nervous system can open the door to a more authentic life.

Whether you’re neurodivergent yourself or supporting someone who is, Raquel’s story is a beautiful reminder that our differences aren’t something to fix—they’re something to embrace.

About Raquel

Raquel Devillé is a Neurodiversity Therapist and creator of the EnCorps Method, a seven-step, body-based system designed to help atypical women embrace their neurodiversity without medication or traditional therapies. Raquel supports her clients in managing chronic stress, anxiety, sensory overload, and social exhaustion by reconnecting with their bodies and empowering them to live authentically. 

Raquel’s journey began as she struggled with chronic pain, anxiety, and sensory overload, challenges that intensified after she became a mother. These difficulties made her question conventional methods of coping and inspired her to seek alternative solutions. The turning point came when she discovered practices like yoga, TRE, and Somatic Experiencing, which allowed her to manage her symptoms and embrace her neurodivergence.

Through her transformation, Raquel developed the EnCorps Method, a framework that guides neurodivergent women to reconnect with their bodies and thrive on their own terms.
