Navigating the complex world of neurodiversity and wellness in Silicon Valley is no small feat, particularly when chronic health issues and past traumas intertwine. In our discussion, Kendra opens up about her experiences with chronic migraines and the relief she found through ADHD treatment, shedding light on the often overlooked struggles women face in receiving timely and appropriate care. The birth of Divergently, a community for late-diagnosed neurodivergent women, serves as a testament to the power of community support and the need for personalized learning strategies. We explore systemic gaps in education and healthcare, and the impact of environmental factors like mold toxicity, highlighting the urgent need for change.
