Your stims trigger me! Navigating competing access needs

In diverse communities, people have unique access needs that sometimes conflict. For instance, one person’s vocal stimming might cause auditory overload for someone else. Similarly, captions can aid auditory processing for some but distract others. These situations highlight the challenge of balancing differing needs without placing blame. By viewing these conflicts as structural issues, we can collaboratively develop strategies that respect everyone’s requirements.Show notes: https://www.neurodiverging.com/your-stims-trigger-me-navigating-competing-access-needs/Grab our free 2-page tip sheet for this episode for a quick reference and reflection questions to help you process: https://neurodiverging.thrivecart.com/conflicting-access-needs-tip-sheet/ Learn more about your ad choices.
