Quotes:

1. "People grow up living to expectations instead of living to who they are."

2. "We don't naturally introspect—metacognition isn't our thing—so we need outside perspectives to help us understand ourselves."

3. "ADHD and autism aren’t childhood disorders; they’re lifelong neurodevelopmental differences that need better awareness and support."
