The AuDHD mind is a specialist mind. Immagine the possibilities if we understood our patterns of thinking, identified what we are good at and unappologetically invested in our strengths. It's never too late to start.

Not all crossroads are the same for everyone.
Self-compassion helps us navigate them.
Self-awareness is what we find along the journey.

Ever flicked through the pages and stopped in one randomly, to find it has something to offer you? This book is one of my favourites...so much depth in simplicity...💕

To me, the rainbow speaks of these '7 needs' to coexist in our daily life. When we find ways to love, we find ways to unite. Unity births renewed feelings, which paves way for healing. When we heal, we gain capacity to give (again). By giving, we subconsciously expand from the depths of our soul. When we reach this point, we finally realise we have the courage to connect again with all that is around us, and make meaning again of this life.
Never give up!

♾️The importance of being neurodiversity-affirming means having the courage (as the adult in the room) to allow a child to create something that is relatable to 'them' even if the 'rule book/curriculum' says create a prescribed type of shadow puppet (output). A child should be assessed based on their creativity, and not compliance.
🌷Cultural perspective: the book shows the Wayang Kulit shadow puppet used widely in Indonesia and Malaysia for storytelling. Neurodivergence, as a way of being, is also a unique culture where SpIns (special interests) are used as storytelling. This is how they relate to the world. Please honour it. 😊

I am thinking of all my neurokin families...it's been 2 weeks since the announcement and the 'neuroprocessing' is still very alive and draining for many. Check out my reflections on my website.

The recent government announcement to take our neurokin off the only support system they have ever had, has been devastating for many of us. In my own way, I process it by creating.
Creating awareness.
Creating images that create awareness.
Creating sensibilities in the images that create awareness.
And most of all, creating a space within us for calm and courage amongst unsettling dust.
If systems won't support us, we will refuse to die on this hill.
We will move mountains to create a space for ourselves, and show them how it's done!
Meanwhile, we bark like a broken record to correct the ableist assumptions made around 3 new trigger words: mild, moderate and severe.

No one gets it right the first time,
No one gets it right every time,
Time has taught me:
Baby steps eventually get us there
With glimmer and all...!
Never. Give. Up.

For those who have been trying again and again to escape the internalised cycle of trauma, know that your cycle will end when you sense this deep in your soul.
Set boundaries.
It is okay to say no.
May your journey be anchored in strength and self-compassion. Always.
