Meet Nadeen, gay Mexican-Lebanese AuDHDer and creative strategist. In this conversation, we talk about:

01:08: The struggles of growing up undiagnosed, out of place, being told you’re too much all the time, and misunderstood during verbal shutdowns

02:28: Learning the hard way how masking can look a lot like ‘being agreeable.’

03:39: How TikTok helped her discover her AuDHD and how women & BIPOC constantly fly under the autism radar.

06:00: Dating across neurotype and race, and surface-level friendships and relationships

07:00: Navigating AuDHD with an Lebanese dad who escaped war and a Mexican mom who didn’t recognize her neurodivergence

09:20: Why she thrives best as a freelancer and not in an office setting - plus the accommodations she can provide herself at home

15:06: How scripting helps her with client interactions on Zoom calls

17:16: What brings her the greatest joy — and why it IS possible for autistic people to get tattoos

22:50: Her journey from growing up with internalized homophobia to her marriage with her wife

26:20: Her advice to her younger self and queer BIPOC learning we’re AuDHD

29:12: why being perceived online feels safer than at a concert.

31:03: The biggest thing Nadeen wants the world and the government to know.
