Ep.13: The Link Between Neurodivergence and Chronic Illness with Jenny Adams

In this episode of the Sensitive. Podcast, Jenny and I discuss:

-her experience of being late diagnosed ADHD, chronic fatigue, and needing to be reliant on a wheelchair

-how she learned to stop suppressing who she really is

-the link between neurodivergence, burnout, and chronic illness -why shame is such a common experience for neurodivergent people, and how it manifests in their lives and businesses

-how when you suppress who you really are, symptoms begin to arise in your body

-how you can become more aware of what your body is asking for

 

Jenny supports female entrepreneurs with ADHD to get out of burnout and overwhelm (before it turns into a chronic illness) and live a balanced and values-driven life that you started your business for, without working 24/7!
