This week's story is that of Lauren Shell
Lauren shares her story of being diagnosed with ADHD only very recently, and what it was like to grow up neurodivergent without knowing you were neurodivergent. She shares with us her story of attaching identity to success and achievement as well as the courage it has taken to rewrite these stories and pursue a non-traditional career path. Lauren also shares her cancer diagnosis and treatment that occurred both before and after the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic.
