Hey guys, hey! Happy Saturday! 🌟 It’s the weekend, and today’s episode is packed with a powerful, eye-opening conversation you don’t want to miss.

Have you ever felt like life threw too many obstacles at you? You’re not alone. Today, I’m joined by Rebecca Armstead—a trauma-informed speaker, master-certified coach, and fierce advocate for neurodivergent individuals. Her story is nothing short of inspirational—overcoming child abuse, foster care, homelessness, teen pregnancy, and undiagnosed autism & ADHD to become a lifeline for struggling teens and young adults.

💡 What We’re Covering Today:
✔️ The link between undiagnosed neurodivergence & narcissistic traits—Why so many are misdiagnosed.
✔️ How autistic & ADHD women are more vulnerable to narcissistic abuse—and how to protect yourself.
✔️ Spotting the red flags—Recognizing manipulation & toxic behaviors early.
✔️ Shifting from a trigger mindset to an opportunity mindset—A game-changer for healing & empowerment.
✔️ Why burnout is an epidemic in the neurodivergent community—And Rebecca’s strategies to fight it.

🎉 It’s OT Autism Awareness Month!
🚀 30 days of exclusive content—Don’t miss a single update!
🎧 Now streaming on JioSaavn! (Special shoutout to my Indian listeners! 🇮🇳)
🤝 Join our Discord & Twitch community to chat, connect, and support each other in real-time.
🎁 Giveaways Alert! The first 1,000 Discord sign-ups will win exclusive Adulting with Autism merch & a $100 Visa gift card!
