Three years after her first appearance, Jessica is back on the podcast for an honest catch‑up about life six‑plus years post‑diagnosis. We talk about what’s shifted, what hasn’t, and how understanding our neurodivergence continues to shape our mental health, identity, and day‑to‑day lives.
We touch on ADHD, dyscalculia, reframing autism and ADHD away from deficit language, and the ongoing work of making sense of our past and present through a more compassionate lens. It’s a grounded, reflective conversation between two late‑identified neurodivergent adults comparing notes on what it actually means to grow into this understanding over time.
