First and foremost I need to acknowledge how lucky and privileged I am that: - I got to leave my lawyer job that made me miserable 5 years ago - I get do something I love (creating content) - I have the most supportive, kind community online - influencing pays my bills and allows me to take care of my loved ones - this new job allows me to work on my own schedule - my coworkers at this new job are all incredibly understanding of my limitations and potential - I am able to “function” at the capacity I am (autism is a spectrum) That being said, the last 5 years have been difficult in ways I never imagined. I’ve been struggling to find purpose. I’ve been struggling to manage my neurodivergence and the burnout that comes with it. I’ve been struggling with my identity since my diagnosis. If you’re feeling lost, just keep living. Stay true to yourself - your wants, needs, strengths, limitations) and you’ll find a way forward on a path that works for YOU. #lifeadvice #vlog #autism #neurodivergent #healing
