Did you know that AuDHD is its own unique experience, not just autism plus ADHD co-existing? In this episode Megan Griffith, author of Welcome to AuDHD: How to Survive and Thrive as an Adult with Autism and ADHD, gives us the inside look at AuDHD from her lived experience. Some of the things Megan talks about:

  •  Why AuDHD is its own unique experience, not just autism plus ADHD stacked on top of each other
  • How autism and ADHD can mask each other, leading to late or missed diagnoses
  • Practical advice on employment, salary negotiation, and finding work that fuels rather than drains you
  • Why autism and ADHD are often misunderstood as behavioral issues instead of neurodevelopmental disabilities
  • Misdiagnosis and what to look for in an autism/ADHD assessment
  • Learning to make accommodations instead of trying to “fix” yourself
  • Why many autistic and ADHD people struggle with self-trust

There’s so much more!
