LEARN | Divergent Mind: Thriving in a World that wasn't Designed for You Models on neurodivergent behavior have mainly been developed from a wide database of predominantly white, cisgender, straight, male subjects. As such, women and BIPOC communities with the same conditions often go undiagnosed or otherwise incorrectly diagnosed. This ultimately results in lots of people losing hope and falling through the system’s cracks instead of learning about accommodations and coping mechanisms. Symptoms manifest differently as a result of cultural norms and often women, for example, are more likely to “mask” their condition as they study, work, and live their lives. Divergent Mind provides healing for those who have often felt overlooked and overwhelmed but never knew quite why as well as for those who want to understand and appreciate the wealth of strengths these individuals bring to society. |
