How Autistic Burnout Burnt Bridges, But Built New Ones Too

Malorie Joy Feidler reports in her own words:

"In reflection, my journey from crashing and burning at my first job to becoming a passionate advocate for neurodiversity has been one of personal growth and resilience. I have learned the importance of self-awareness and the need for accom-modations that allow individuals to thrive in their work environments. 

It is a shared responsibility, with employers needing to listen and create inclusive cultures, and individuals embracing their unique strengths and advocating for themselves. 

As I continue on my mission to bridge the gap between [neurodivergent] individuals and organisations, I am fueled by the belief that everyone deserves the opportunity to pursue a fulfilling career in an environment that celebrates diversity and enables individuals to reach their full potential."
