Gifted Unleashed
Do you suffer from imposter syndrome? Have you been called „too much“, „too intense“ „too sensitive“? Do you just hate inequality? Do you have difficulties finding your career path because you are a multi potential person who has a 1000 ideas and 500 projects... all at the same time? Do you have a weird evolved sense of humor? Do you suffer from dyslexia but are fast at grasping new concepts? Do you have a hard time fitting in and sometime feel like a minority of one? Well you are not alone! This is why I am here. I felt the urge and need to have a place to collect all the interesting stories, concepts and ideas which inspired me over the last couple of years. But more importantly, I stumbled across a very interesting and surprising finding! It might help you realize that what you‘ve always thought what is „wrong“ with you, is actually what is right with you! Together we will explore the topic of giftedness, neurodiversity and twice-exceptionality (2e). You do not need an IQ test to listen but an open mind and a natural portion of curiosity. Welcome to Gifted Unleashed, the Podcast for Gifted and 2e Adults. (Formerly known as Unleash Monday)

TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE:
- Neurodivergent children and adults may have a hard time fitting in and might be subject to bulling.
- Not all gifted people do well on a standardised IQ test. Some people have very spiky gifted profiles.
- Trauma can mask giftedness and it influences how you present yourself fin the world
- An neurodivergent diagnosis (such as autism) can give answers on why your life is the way it is!
- The DSM 5 is the standard for mental health and is a pathological assessment. However, not all divergent thinking patterns are pathological.
- Gifted psychology is not a thing in the mainstream psychology (yet).
- There is autism burnout and autism fatigue. Energy management is therefore very important for people with autism spectrum disorder (ASD)
- The world is a socially constructed system. If you do not fit in it doesn’t mean it’s pathological!
- John created online service to serve 2/e autism male (2eAm).
