What if the traits you’ve spent years trying to “fix” were actually your strengths?
In this sharp, eye-opening episode, Sarah speaks with Jens Bammel — former global publishing CEO turned neurodiversity coach — about ADHD, burnout, masking, and building workplaces where every brain type can thrive.
🔥 What You’ll Learn (Fast):
1. Neurodiversity isn’t rare — it’s everywhere
Most people sit somewhere on the spectrum. Leaders must stop waiting for diagnoses and start designing environments where different brains flourish.
2. Fixing weaknesses is a waste of energy
Jens argues for strength-based leadership:
→ Do more of what people enjoy
→ Reduce what drains them
→ Let teams self-identify what actually works for their brains
3. Burnout is usually misalignment, not failure
Jens explains why so many talented people hit a wall — and how joy, values, and identity must be rebuilt before re-entering the workplace.
4. Communication is the secret weapon
One action point per email. Clear language. No assumptions.
Simple for neurodivergent brains — game-changing for everyone.
5. Confidence = Being Yourself Deliberately
A line you’ll remember long after listening.
