Anxiety Reduction for Neurodiverse Humans
Here’s one of the most helpful reframes I’ve ever come across when dealing with my own anxiety, or helping my clients through theirs.
Unmasking Strategies
Tuesday, July 18th, 2023
11 AM PST – 2 PM EST – 7 PM BST

The recording and transcript will be emailed to everyone who registers.
Unmasking your autism can be scary, anxiety provoking, and sometimes dangerous (BTW, when this is true, this is not the time to disclose or unmask).
A lot of the time, it’s more scary than it could be because we don’t have any idea how to smooth the transition and deal with the issues that come up.
We can’t go over every scenario in one hour, but I can offer a helpful framework and a few tips to aid you along the way.
This workshop is geared toward Autistics and is inclusive. The presenter is likewise AuDHD.
Is this free because it's a cleverly disguised sales pitch?
Nope. I hate that.
What I’ll be sharing with you here is a BS-free perspective from my own lived experience and strategies that I share with some of my clients, but I’m not going to be pitching my services. I’ll be sharing strategies that you can use on your own with just what is presented here.
Full disclosure, you will receive my newsletter after registering (about twice a month), on building an autism-friendly life. If you don’t want it, you can unsubscribe anytime.
Who this is for
- Autistic, AuDHD, and other neurodiverse individuals.
- Those with sensory or other differences who have had to hide, camouflage, or mask their traits (or real selves) to “pass” for “normal.”
- Anyone who is working their way out of burnout by becoming more authentically themselves.
