ADHD isn’t a lack of focus — it’s a different rhythm of attention
For people with ADHD, attention doesn’t follow rules of importance or deadlines — it follows interest, energy, and curiosity. What looks like distraction is often the brain searching for stimulation and flow. ADHD isn’t about willpower or laziness — it’s about how executive functions like memory, planning, and impulse control dance differently. And within that difference lies remarkable creativity, empathy, adaptability, and passion. With the right support, these traits becom

Autism isn’t one story — it’s a spectrum of many.
Autism isn’t a single condition to “fix,” but a beautiful constellation of ways the brain experiences the world — in communication, sensory input, focus, and connection. Each autistic person carries their own rhythm, strengths, and sensitivities. Some may need more structured support. Others may navigate life independently but quietly battle sensory overload or exhaustion. No two experiences are the same — and that’s the beauty of it. When we see autism through the neurodiver

Different Doesn't mean Deficit
Some minds navigate systems like schools and workplaces with ease, experiencing communication and routines naturally — a common neurotypical experience. However, others perceive the world differently, feeling every sound or missing subtle cues, embodying neurodivergent experiences rich in depth, creativity, and insight. The challenge arises when society misunderstands these differences, pushing for conformity instead of recognition. Holistic coaching and healing emphasize aff

What if your brain was never meant to fit a mold?
Neurodiversity highlights that there's no singular way to think, feel, or experience the world. Each brain—whether attuned to creativity, focus, empathy, or innovation—possesses its unique brilliance. For too long, these differences have been mislabeled as "deficits." In reality, they represent diverse expressions of human potential. Embracing neurodiversity, particularly in holistic wellness and coaching, shifts our focus from "fixing" individuals to honoring them. This appr

Autism isn’t a straight line — it’s a living, breathing spectrum of brilliance
For years, autism was pictured as a line: “less autistic” to “more autistic.” But real life doesn’t fit neatly on a scale. A person may communicate clearly yet struggle with sensory overload… or thrive in structure but find social nuance exhausting. That’s why the Autism Wheel paints a fuller picture. Instead of ranking, it shows the many dimensions — communication, sensory sensitivity, emotional regulation, motor skills, and more — each unique and ever-shifting. Every autist

Rethinking Disability: The Social Model's Empowering Perspective
The Social Model of disability perceives disability not as an inherent flaw within an individual, but as a consequence of societal structures. It posits that the challenges encountered by neurodivergent individuals arise from rigid systems, unaccommodating environments, and restricted social expectations, rather than from the individuals themselves. This model underscores the need to eliminate barriers, improve accessibility, and appreciate diverse modes of thinking and comm

Understanding the Medical Model's Perspective on Neurodivergence
The Medical Model interprets neurodivergence through a clinical perspective, concentrating on diagnosis, symptoms, and interventions to manage or "correct" perceived dysfunctions. It emphasizes diagnosing conditions based on observable symptoms, highlighting impairments or limitations in functioning, and developing treatments to align behavior with neurotypical norms. The language used often includes terms like "disorder," "impairment," or "dysfunction," which can create a p
