Mask On, Mask Off: Confessions of Neurodivergent Imposters

from Simply 1 Percent · host Meredith Richards and Wendolyn Pascale

Mask on, mask off — Wendolyn and I get real about life as two awkwardly authentic neurodivergent gals. From masking in social situations to battling imposter syndrome, we share our quirks, stories, and the messy, funny road toward self-acceptance.Neurodivergence means that someone’s brain works and processes the world a little differently than what’s considered typical — like having ADHD, autism, dyslexia, a sensory processing disorder or other variations — and those differences come with both challenges and strengths. In this episode, we dive into the realities of neurodivergence, ADD, and how masking shapes our daily lives. We talk openly about the weight of imposter syndrome, the pressure to fit in, and the journey of finding authenticity in relationships and self-discovery.masking, neurodivergent, neurodivergence, ADD, ADHD, authenticity, imposter syndrome, self-acceptance, self-discovery, mental health podcast, relationships, awkward authenticity, neurodivergent women, masking stories, vulnerability, connection, self-growth, personal development, dramedy podcast, quirky podcast
