We also highlight practical strategies such as creating a structured routine, breaking tasks into manageable chunks, and harnessing the power of visuals. But we go beyond the hurdles, offering a beacon of hope and resilience. We touch on the importance of mental health, the battle against overwhelm, and the pursuit of balance. We emphasize the value of self-awareness, positivity, and self-compassion when dealing with additional responsibilities and pressures.

Authors: Jess Edelstein

Description: Wheels On My Back is a first hand account about growing up neurodivergent and navigating a neurotypical world as a neurodivergent (#actuallyautistic, #actuallyadhd) adult with CPTSD. Because despite the many myths, misconceptions, and stigmas that dominate the mainstream narrative, neurodivergent kids grow into neurodivergent adults - often with a lot of trauma, internalized ableism, and shame to unpack. On this podcast, I’ll explore the burgeoning neurodiversity paradigm and why it matters to adults like me whose oft-overlooked perspectives can vastly improve the mental health of neurodivergent kids and their families.
