I’m LaToya Cofer—a mother, a seeker of peace, and a professional navigating the beautiful complexity of a "Ferrari brain." With an MBA and a background as a QMHP and RBT, I’ve spent over a decade blending the logic of finance with the heart of behavioral health. But here, those are just tools I use to protect our sanctuary.
This channel is for the high-achieving neurodivergent women and parents who are tired of the hustle and ready for the Nurture.
What we tend to here:
The Inner Garden: Gentle systems for ADHD/2e minds to find focus without burnout.
Nurturing the Roots: Clinical insights
Welcome to the first episode of The Joyful Lean-In (formerly Finding Joy with Toy).
In this episode, I'm taking off the mask. I have the MBA, the business (Shining Light LLC), and 10 years of experience as a mental health professional—but in 2023, none of that stopped me from having a complete mental breakdown in my car.
I'm'reI’m opening up about my diagnosis of Autism and ADHD, the reality of the "Ferrari B"ain," and why I walked away from a career in social work to become a Premium Auditor. We’re also talking about the hard stuff—medication struggles, the financial pressure of single motherhood (and yes, dealing with foreclosure), and why I'm building a "Sanctuary" to survive it all.
This is a space for the introverts, the neurodivergent parents, and anyone who realizes the world wasn't built for our brains—so we're building our own.
In this episode:
0:00 - Intro: Why we need a "Safe Space" for introverts
1:08 - The "COVID Pause" & My 2023 Breakdown
2:25 - Getting fired by my therapist & the "Medication Trap"
3:16 - Building a Sanctuary (and why I need it)
4:11 - Career Pivot: From $12/hr RBT to MBA & Auditor
6:35 - The "Ferrari Brain": Explaining Autism/ADHD
7:10 - The Reality Check: Facing foreclosure & having faith
Join the Village:If you have a "Ferrari Brain" in a bicycle world, I want to hear from you. Drop a comment below: What is one thing you are doing to build your own sanctuary this week?
