Episode Synopsis

In this intense episode of Femme on the Spectrum, Elizabeth explores the challenging dynamics of unmasking her neurodivergence within her family and the torrents of criticism it incites, particularly from her 'family enforcer,' Cousin Kimmy. Elizabeth highlights patterns in neurodivergent individuals' interactions with their families, their inherent need for truth-telling, and how these traits can be misconstrued as attacks against their families. The episode dissects the harmful messages they receive, their psychological implications, and the motivations behind them, like maintaining family loyalty and status quo. The episode emphasizes that such reactions can be an affirmation of the neurodivergent's discerning nature and are thus initial steps towards their truth. The show ends with a reflective discussion, encouraging listeners to understand that recognizing and affirming their truth is a superpower.
