SUMMARY:How to Love Our Neurodivergent Brains
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an enriching\, uplifting evening of deep discussio
 ns\, empowerment\, and practical tips for embracing our neurodivergent 
 strengths while being kind to ourselves  – plus some stand-up comedy\,
  because why not!?\nOur panel discussion\nOur panel discussion will focus 
 on understanding and embracing our unique traits and gaining a deeper und
 erstanding of our vulnerabilities. And yes\, we'll also embrace those deli

 ing the joys of neurodiversity!\n\nWe’ll be exploring:\n\n 	What cultura
 l conditioning do we need to shed – collectively and individually – to
  embrace our neurodivergence fully?\n 	How do you embrace your neurodiverg
 ence in business and in life?\n 	How do you practice self-kindness and sel
 f-compassion when you’re having a challenging time?\n\nOur speakers come
