Exploring what it means to navigate the world with integrity, instead of exhaustion, as a neurodivergent person

By a neurodivergent linguist, interculturalist, and creative
Hi, I'm Ana María
I'm a 2E (gifted + autistic) linguist, interculturalist, and former civil rights worker.
I've spent years mapping what it means to be neurodivergent from the inside out, not as pathology, but as culture- a particular way of sensing and making sense of the world. I focus on two themes:
Neurodivergence as a culture
Neurodivergent communication as intercultural communication
This is where that work lives.

"We cannot live securely in a world which is not our own, in a world which is interpreted for us by others.
An interpreted world is not a home.
Part of the terror is to take back our own listening, to put our ears to our own inner voices, to see our own light, which is our birthright, and comes to us in silence."
