Scientist. Farmer. Feminist. Leader. Alpha male. Veteran. African-American. Hindu. Identity isn’t just about who we think we are — it’s about how others perceive us, and how we move through the world. It’s determined by our families and culture; our race and gender; our jobs, personalities, bodies, and minds. All of those things make up our personal narratives, defining who we are and how we deal with things. But identities aren’t always fixed. Sometimes, they can change, and even clash. On this episode, we explore stories of people wrestling with those changes. We hear about tough Australian farmers becoming more in tune with their feelings, how DNA testing is transforming who we think we are, and the challenges of dating while trans.

Men's/Women's - Unisex Embrace Neurodiversity Shirt, Autism Acceptance Shirt, ADHD Shirt, Inclusion Shirt, Advocacy for all Neurotypes Embrace Neurodiversity - Not All Great Minds Think Alike - Unisex Staple T-Shirt ---------------------------------------------------- When we talk about diversity, one type is often left out: neurodiversity. In a culture that counts “great minds think alike” among its values, people whose brains work a little differently are often misunderstood or excluded. What is Neurodiversity? Neurodiversity describes the wide range of neurological functioning that exists among humans and the many ways human brains differ from each other. Some of these differences have a history of being pathologized, while the people with the differences or medical diagnosis of autism, adhd, dyslexia, for example, have been seen and treated as lesser than. Change is happening, though, as more people recognize that neurodiversity is an important part of human diversity!

After creating and accumulating our own resources, we started sharing with our staff and were surprised by the encouraging feedback we got. After taking a step away from teaching full-time, we decided to open our online marketplace!
