The Moody Divergent.
Burnout. Boundaries. Bullsh*t.
I’ve been lost, broken, burnt out and told a thousand times to just get on with it. Add perimenopause into the mix, a late autism and ADHD diagnosis, and you’ve got the perfect storm.
I’m Moody, human first, divergent always.
This isn’t self-help, it’s the realities of being late diagnosed, the skill regression that comes with burnout, and the process of relearning life all over again.
Some weeks it’s heartbreak, betrayal, grief that rips you open.
Other weeks it’s rants, reflections, or pulling apart the everyday madness.
Masking. Meltdowns. Hormones. Love. Loss. Ageing. Identity.
The quiet sh*t no one prepares you for.
If you’ve ever felt too much, not enough, or like you’re carrying it all on your own, you're not alone.
I’m breaking habits. Protecting my soft, sensitive soul.
Refusing to shrink any more just to make other people comfortable.
It’s messy, it’s moody, it’s me.
Welcome to The Moody Divergent.
The Moody Divergent.
"So I Finally Hit Record..."
This first episode wasn’t intended to be flawless—it was meant to be authentic.
In this raw and introspective debut, I finally released myself from the pressure to have everything figured out. There was no script, no polish—just me, sitting down after years of suppressing, shrinking, and struggling to survive systems that never accommodated me.
You’ll hear why I abandoned the pursuit of perfection and embraced the act of recording instead.
You’ll learn about the impact of my late diagnosis of ADHD and autism.
And you’ll discover that this podcast isn’t another neurodivergent self-help guide—it’s a space for the messy middle ground.
If you’ve ever:
•Exhausted yourself trying to conform to neurotypical expectations
•Questioned whether your heightened sensitivity was merely a survival mechanism
•Felt like your mask slipped before you were ready to remove it
This podcast is for you.
The Moody Divergent isn’t about being easily digestible—it’s about finally expressing what no one gave us permission to say aloud.
