What if the most exhausting thing isn’t your mind—but constantly explaining it? In Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, hosted by Yusuf, this episode explores what it truly means to grow up feeling misunderstood and how that shapes identity.
This conversation is for anyone who has ever felt “too much” or “not enough.” Thomas R. Wilson shares how early experiences of judgment, masking, and survival can transform into self-advocacy, creativity, and community. You’ll walk away with a deeper understanding of neurodiversity—and a gentler relationship with yourself.
