If you're neurodivergent, setting boundaries probably feels genuinely impossible. Not just hard - actually impossible.
In this episode, I break down the real reasons why:
How your nervous system responds to boundary-setting as a threat
The conditioning that convinced you your needs don't matter
Why neurotypical boundary advice never worked for you
This isn't about willpower or being "strong enough." It's about understanding what's actually happening in your brain and nervous system.
I'm a registered mental health nurse, interpersonal psychotherapist, and therapeutic coach. I'm also ADHD and autistic (diagnosed at 47 and 50), so I get it both professionally and personally.
