LEARN THAT BEING DIFFErent ALLOWS YOU SO SEE THE WORLD FROM A NEW PErSPECTIVE
curious minds, divergent thinkerS and Creative Brains
Ever since I was a kid I felt awkward and disconnected to my body. Like my brain was running a program that my body could not understand. Maybe you have felt this way too?
Despite being successful by definition on paper with Bachelors Degree (B.A. Hons.) in Psychology and a Doctorate Degree (D.C.) in Chiropractic, all well managing a learning disability diagnosed in my early 20’s.. I still felt like something was not right.
I would have constant sense of awkwardness…a deep feeling I was off track or out of place. Combined with a sense of lack of control, emotional outbursts and constant loosing of objects or forgetting important times and places. While I would excel with patients and colleagues…what I would only show to a select inner circle was a different story. I thought that everyone experienced this mental and physical fatigue, that this was just life.
After a deep dive with some trusted medical colleagues. What I discovered was that I had a spectacular brain it was unique and worked differently than I thought. I was diagnosed with ADHD (inattentive), Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Binocular Vision Dysfunction (BVD) in my mid 30’s. The pieces of the puzzle started to join. I started to learn what my brain needed and how I could use my unique perspective to help others.
My unique value in the world comes from hard work, dedication and my ability to learn new meaningful connections and look at problems with a different angle and be willing to try different ideas without fear or embracement. Creating a safe space for people to learn and get feedback without judgement while getting clear feedback is my unique gift to the world and I am ready to teach.
When you understand who you are… you can see your true value in the world. My value is to share this jouney with the world and to help other make true and meaningful connections for themselves.
What was once my biggest fear and weakness, showing my awkward self to the world, has turned into a lifelong passion to help others connect to their bodies and brains and awaken their truly unique self.
