001 Am the only one who thought I was just a “highly sensitive person?”

Hold onto your pants as we take a wild ride through questions like “What is neurodivergent? Aren’t we all neurodivergent?” and explore the many iterations of Kari’s journey to understanding her neurodivergence (spoiler: from empath and HSP to ADHD and Autistic)..    We talk about things like the paradox of holding a nonpathological, accepting lens for our neurodivergence while we also often have to revert to pathologizing language to explain our experiences and needs to others.  Books referenced: The Highly Sensitive Person by Elaine Aron The Highly Sensitive Person: How to Thrive When the World Overwhelms You a book by Elaine N.
