Today Michelle and Wallis are joined by wonderful North Node member, prolific creative, and whip-smart entrepreneur Dr. Liz Bahr, to muse on managing a creative life with a neurodivergent/squiggly brained diagnosis.
Liz is a writer, creative expression facilitator, adjunct professor, clinical mentor, consultant, entrepreneur, and Doctor of Occupational Therapy. She holds a Doctorate from Boston University and a Master of Science from NYU, 500-hour yoga teacher, and specializes in working with ND people and populations — Sensory Processing Issues, Autism Spectrum Disorder, and ADHD. She’s the founder of Pegasus Wellness, and The Magic Word, a podcast about science, creativity, and storytelling (the first season is out this spring!).
Follow along with Liz on IG and Twitter.
We muse on:
- How to identify sensory processing and sensory wellness preferences and which environmental accommodations to seek
- Being diagnosed at various ages and what this does for your learning and development
- How to identify when getting help for a specific diagnosis is helpful
- Strategies for planning and externalizing your thoughts when dealing with ADHD and executive dysfunction
- The practice of “junk journaling” for psychic release for squiggly brained creatives
- Strategies for coping with overwhelm and getting out of our heads and back into our bodies
