Welcome to The Neurodivergent Lounge
A comfortable space for uncomfortable growth.
After years of trying systems that didn’t fit my ADHD/autistic brain, I stopped forcing change—and started researching myself. This podcast shares that journey.
Each episode blends raw, honest conversation with real research at the intersection of neurodiversity and neuroplasticity. You’ll hear from neurodivergent voices, researchers, and evidence-based studies that finally make it all click.
No fluffy hacks. No pressure to mask. Just insight that helps you understand your beautifully different brain.
What makes this different?
The Lounge was built alongside SORA Ally—an AI companion that draws from academic research to help neurodivergent folks create success systems that actually work.
Every episode here is grounded in the same research that powers SORA.
SORA ALLY 2.0 Coming. Cleaner, Simpler and more Impactful Results.
Whether you’re exploring how your brain works, or building your own neurodivergent toolkit, this podcast gives you the foundation to advocate with clarity and live with confidence.
Pull up a chair. Rewire your mind. You belong here.

Takeaways I learned I'm autistic and have ADHD. My nervous system became my own enemy. I wasn't leaving a marriage; I was leaving a trauma loop. Finding out that I was neurodivergent didn't make me feel limited; it made me feel powerful. Therapy helped me uncover my true self. I wish I had my book 20 years ago. This podcast has helped me speak my truth. I'm excited about my new consulting business. You are not too sensitive; you're finally understanding yourself. Choose yourself. Sound bites "I learned I'm autistic." "You are not too sensitive." "Choose yourself."
