Welcome to UnShaming AuDHD - a podcast for autistic ADHDers who want to remove shame, blame, and guilt from their lives and replace them with curiosity, compassion, and joy. I'm your host, Jes Diverges, and I'm here to help you reconnect to the authentic and unapologetic version of yourself that's been hidden away by systemic, interpersonal, and intergenerational shame. My goal with each episode is that you walk away feeling at least 1% more seen, heard, valued, and loved, because you belong here. You have *always* belonged here. Let's get into it.
