341: Masking, Overcompensating, and Burnout: What Neurodivergent First-Gen Students Should Know
In this episode of the Grad School Femtoring Podcast, I address the prevalence of masking and overcompensating as survival mechanisms for first-gen and neurodivergent students. I also share persona reflections and explore why these behaviors develop, how they can lead to burnout, and what practical strategies you can test out today to resist them. You’ll learn the importance of finding identity-affirming spaces, setting boundaries, advocating for accommodations, and more.
