Episode 11: Not Broken, Just Complex: Executive Dysfunction & Other Brain Plot Twists

Let’s be real—navigating the world with a brain that doesn’t play by the “standard” rules can be both a superpower and a minefield. In this episode, we’re getting into the gritty truth of what it’s like to live with cognitive differences that impact everything from decision-making and social dynamics to your career path and sense of identity.

We’re talking executive dysfunction, internal processing splits, neurodivergence, and the complexity of intelligence beyond what society tends to reward. Ever felt like you’re too much, not enough, or just wired “wrong”? Yeah—we’re going there.

This is a raw and real look at how our internal landscapes shape the way we move through life. We’re breaking down harmful assumptions, shedding light on what often gets misread or dismissed, and making space for brains that function outside the algorithm. It’s about understanding yourself, challenging the script, and learning how to show up fully—exactly as you are- and allowing room for others to do the same.
