About Moving Minds presents Understanding Neurodivergence: Masking, Support, and Challenging Stereoty
n honest look at neurodivergence at work, from lived experience, exploring masking, myth busting, and practical strategies for confidence.
Speaker: Lauren McKee, Neurodiversity Workplace Services Consultant
What does navigating life and the workplace look like for someone who is neurodivergent? Often, it can be exhausting and confusing.This talk moves beyond labels, stereotypes, and stigma to share insights from lived experience and professional practice about the real experiences of neurodivergent individuals at work. It explores masking - what it is, why it happens, and the emotional and professional toll it can take. Attendees will gain a deeper understanding of neurodivergence, along with practical strategies, tools, and knowledge of support options to navigate the workplace with confidence, clarity, and self-compassion.
Key audience takeaways:
- A clearer understanding of neurodivergence - beyond stereotypes, diagnostic labels, and outdated assumptions.
- Insight into the lived experience of neurodivergent people, including why masking happens and how it affects wellbeing and performance.
- Myth-busting that challenges common misconceptions and reframes beliefs about neurodivergence.
- Practical, immediately usable strategies and knowledge - including resources and understanding to make informed choices in the workplace.
