If you just got a diagnosis and things feel harder than they did before, you’re in the right place.
You expected the diagnosis to bring relief. Maybe it did, for a minute. Then the strategies stopped working. Your tolerance dropped. You started looking inward for who you actually are and finding, in your own words, furniture borrowed from other people’s houses.
That’s not a personal failure. It’s what this actually looks like for most of us. Nobody talks about it because that’s not the story anyone wants to hear.
I’m Renata. I’m a creativity coach for late-diagnosed neurodivergent women, and I’m AuDHD myself. I use expressive art-making as a tool to help you slow down enough to hear what’s already true about you. Not to fix anything. To listen.
The best place to start
After the Diagnosis — a free guide
Five things you’re probably living right now, named plainly. A guide to give language to what you’ve been experiencing and permission to stop blaming yourself for how things have been playing out.
When you sign up, I’ll send you the guide right away. After that, you’ll hear from me every two weeks. I usually share a new podcast episode giving you more words to help you understand what you’re experiencing. I also share personal reflections and discoveries I’m making in real time. You’ll likely hear me talk about the grief, the rage, and my cautious hope. Honest, human, and almost never fully resolved. Messages to help you feel less lonely and more supported.
You don’t have to have it figured out to be here.
You don’t have to know what you need yet.
You just have to be willing to look.
