In this episode, we sit down with Arsh to explore the complex and often misunderstood experience of masking within the neurodivergent community. Together, we unpack what masking really means—how individuals consciously or unconsciously hide parts of their authentic selves to fit into neurotypical expectations.
We’ll discuss the emotional toll masking can take, its connection to burnout, identity, and belonging, and how unmasking can be both a liberating and vulnerable process. Whether you’re neurodivergent yourself, a loved one, or a professional supporting this community, this conversation sheds light on the importance of creating spaces where people can show up as their true selves—without fear or judgment.
