The Neurodivergent Crash Course on Feeling Overwhelmed
Ever felt overwhelmed before? Yes you have - No need to put on a brave face or mask and pretend that you haven't. Really. We've all been through times when we just want to pull our hair out and scream. Or perhaps your physical state for feeling overwhelmed looks different - Maybe you need to step outside to take a breath of fresh air? You need to listen to music? Everyone's different.
Neurodivergent folks (ADHDers, autistic folks, people with epilepsy, anxiety, OCD, and others) experience intense dysregulation due to a wide variety of stimulus. How we process the feelings of "I need help" is a separate concept from actually recognizing the signs of "I need help." In this episode, I break down some personal experiences with how I've recognized the signs of feeling overwhelmed, learning what I can do about them, and actually taking the first step to making said change.

Listen in on how to make interviews a two-way street, or to know if that's just not going to fly for a potential employer.
