You’re not imagining the disconnect. You’re working in a world built for a different nervous system. In this episode, Matilda breaks down the core distinction between neuronarcal and neuronormal professionals—and why so much career advice, leadership training, and workplace culture simply doesn’t apply to your reality.

You’ll learn:
• What “neuronarcal” and “neuronormal” actually mean—and why the distinction matters
• How survival-based conditioning shapes your strategies, instincts, and leadership presence
• Why your work feels heavier, more invisible, or more costly than it does for others

Listen now and finally hear your experience named. You’re not broken—you’re neuropowerful.
