The Necessity of Joy and Play for the Neurodivergent Individual

In this episode, Dianne A. Allen explores the necessity of joy and play for gifted and neurodivergent individuals and how we can welcome more of them into our daily lives.

She talks about the differences between joy and happiness, society’s hyperfocus on productvity, and how we can find balance with play.

Joy is an antidote to heaviness, and a lack of it mutes our creativity and brings existential loneliness. 

Dianne encourages us to measure joy by how much we feel it, as we all experience it uniquely. Allow play in your life to bring back that beautiful, joyful essence in you.

Be inspired on the Someone Gets Me Podcast – The Necessity of Joy and Play for the Neurodivergent Individual.
