Episode 16: Narelle King - Professional organiser and AuDHDer
Meet Narelle - she found out 3 years ago that she’s both Autistic and an ADHDer - a double-neurospicy brain type commonly referred to as “AuDHD.”
AuDHDers often find themselves pulled in 2 different directions, as the different parts of our brains try to coexist in the same person. For example - one part of you might thrive on variety, whereas another part of you feels safer when there is consistency.
To make things even more interesting, Narelle is a professional organiser (say whattt… and ADHDer who organises OTHER people??). Which makes her pretty awesome in our eyes! So we had to get her on the show.
In this episode we talk about:
Why getting a formal diagnosis can be empowering.
Adjusting to family life after finding out you’re neurodivergent.
The grief process and other emotions after getting a diagnosis later in life.
Seeking out a naturopath and finding natural coping strategies, instead of taking meds right now (but also being open to meds in the future).
