The Neurodivergent Brain: Lifestyle Awareness for Better Regulation with Carla Padilla

The Neurodivergent Brain: Lifestyle Awareness for Better Regulation with Carla Padilla

Neurodivergence is a word that’s becoming more common, but many people still wonder what it really means and how it shows up in everyday life. In this episode, we explore neurodivergence through a lifestyle and nervous system lens, focusing on awareness, regulation, and practical understanding.

In this episode we discuss:

• What neurodivergence means and how it can show up in daily life
• How lifestyle awareness and functional approaches can support nervous system regulation
• Understanding masking and why many neurodivergent individuals learn to hide or suppress their natural responses
• What demand avoidance is and how it can be misunderstood in relationships, and work
Communication strategies that help neurodivergent and neurotypical individuals better understand each other
