Episode 14: Dealing with Change

In this 14th episode of Neurodivergent Struggles, Dr. Kojo Sarfo and Sydney talk about embracing change, navigating ADHD and autism, and stepping outside of familiar routines. Together, they discuss why novelty can be both exciting and overwhelming for neurodivergent people, the challenges of perfectionism, and how flexibility within structure helps regulate the nervous system.
The conversation also explores storytelling, creativity, and the importance of supportive environments. Sydney reflects on her career in entertainment, while Dr. Kojo shares how understanding neurodivergence has shaped his work in psychiatry and content creation. They discuss celebrating accomplishments, building strong support systems, recognizing personal strengths, and knowing when to ask for help instead of trying to do everything alone.
The hosts wrap up by answering relatable neurodivergent thoughts about staying up late for alone time, struggles with punctuality, and why working from home can become a trap for people with ADHD. They share practical strategies like setting boundaries, body doubling, creating external accountability, and designing routines that work with the neurodivergent brain rather than against it.
