This episode looks at Black Excellence and exceptionalism and how this might be experienced with neurodivergence.
NOTE: I do stick to centering race in this episode, but I believe that depending on the different identities you hold there will be a lot of familiar feelings here. There's a lot of complexity in these topics.
Three thoughts on navigating exceptionalism while trying to excel:
1. Access implications
2. Imposter syndrome
3. Whiteness as the reference point
