Neurodivergent Rising | Module 4:
The Mask and the Mirror Conformity, ND Burnout, and the Journey Home
When the Performance Becomes Too Heavy
For many neurodivergent people, survival has meant learning how to pass. Adjusting our voices, our expressions, even our dreams to fit what the world expects. Over years, this constant performance can leave us exhausted, disconnected, and unsure who we are beneath the mask.

Neurodivergent Rising: Reclaiming the Truth of Difference
Neurodivergent Rising is a 9-week, live-taught learning journey that goes far beyond checklists, stereotypes, and clinical labels. Through a trauma-informed, multidisciplinary lens, we’ll explore the lived realities of neurodivergence and the cultural, historical, and systemic forces that shape how it’s understood.
Alongside a community of peers and powerful guest voices, you’ll uncover the wisdom of your own body, question the systems that demand you perform or conform, and reclaim difference as a source of intelligence and strength.
This course is for neurodivergent people, caregivers, and practitioners who want to deepen understanding, expand compassion, and imagine new possibilities for living, relating, and thriving.
Each module combines live teaching, guest sessions, guided practices, and reflection tools to help you integrate the learning into daily life — so you leave not just informed, but transformed.
With warmth, honesty, and a grounded approach, Neurodivergent Rising invites you to step into a truer way of being — not as someone broken or in need of fixing, but as a whole person rising into your own truth.
