Congratulations on launching this brilliant new venture, Hannah. I got totally burned out from working in toxic cultures where the politics was all the more complex because I didn’t know I was autistic! I think the freedom of freelance suits us neuorkin Having a neurodivergent Coach to help you work out how to align your business to your neurodivergent way is a fantastic thing.

Thank you so much Andrea. I'm very excited. I know you're also doing great work with ND women too - perhaps there could be some scope for collaboration in the future? 😊

LOVE THIS! Wishing you great success. Your message is right on. I didn't realize how much of a square peg I was in the round hole of corporate life until years after I left. I wasn't a failure!! I was never meant to be there.

Congratulations I absolutely love the straightforward honesty and upfrontness in this introduction. I had a look at your website and just said yes, yes, yes to all your prompts. At this point in my life, single parent, perimenopausal mum, with chronic illness, I often wonder if I am also neurodiverse. Another thing to add to the list of things to look into. I have started and had to finish so many brilliant small businesses either through burnout or lack of clients and the inability to find them. Constantly starting over and over again, my finances currently on the floor. My ideas flow but I lack the skills and energy to keep things moving forwards sustainably. Really looking forward to your new content. X

Thank you Chloe. It's definitely worth looking into whether you're neurodiverse - while researching everything in the world to try and get better I found that there's a strong scientifically studied link between Autism and CFS - people with autism have a much higher risk of developing CFS and other chronic conditions. And I totally hear you about the constantly starting over again, it becomes so demoralising. Really enjoyed your thoughtful comments (renewed thanks) and sending you healing vibes 🙏

Brilliant! I'm so excited for you! I'm not ND (I think) but I HATE being told the 'proper' way to do things but my career didn't allow it so I spent my working life being dissatisfied. So go you, Hannah Anstee unmasked!
