Everyone has a dream. But sometimes there’s a gap between where we are and where we want to be. True, there are some people who can bridge that gap easily, on their own, but all of us need a little help at some point. A little boost. An accountability partner. A Snooze Squad. In each episode, the Snooze Squad will strategize an action plan for people to face their fears. Guests will transform their own perception of their potential and walk away a few inches closer to who they want to become ...

198 - The ND Lovers Club: Reclaiming Relationships Through a Neurodivergent Lens with Bontle Senne & Sara Louise Ackrill
Manage episode 479118858 series 3301052

If you believe someone is using your copyrighted work without your permission, you can follow the process outlined here https://ppacc.player.fm/legal.
In this Social Saturdays episode of Beyond Chronic Burnout, we’re joined by powerhouse co-authors Bontle Senne and Sara Louise Ackrill to talk all things love, healing, and neurodivergence in their new book, The ND Lovers Club.
Together, we explore what it means to navigate relationships while autistic or otherwise neurodivergent. From the impact of masking and energy management to the pressure of societal norms and the journey to self-understanding, Bontle and Sara Louise open up about the deeply personal and often unspoken challenges of dating, intimacy, and connection.
This conversation is not just about relationships with others—it’s also about the most important relationship of all: the one with yourself.
🔹 Why understanding your neurodivergent identity is essential in healthy relationships
🔹 How masking can drain connection—and how to step into authenticity
🔹 The emotional and physical health foundations of sustainable love
🔹 Personal stories of healing, growth, and finding joy while ND and dating
🔹 Behind the scenes of writing The ND Lovers Club and the power of storytelling for neurodivergent communities.
Whether you’re ND and navigating love or a clinician supporting ND clients, this episode is a heart-centered look at connection through a truly affirming lens.

🎉 You're Invited to the Birthday Book Launch Party! 🎉 Friday, May 2nd | 3 PM CT | MY VIBE Network
✨ This isn’t your usual book launch. This is a celebration of you, your energy, and what becomes possible when we stop hiding and start living—unmasked.
Join hostess Michelle Pecak of the MY VIBE Network and author Carole Jean Whittington for the launch of Living Unmasked: An Autistic Woman’s Guide to Get Into Your Comfort Zone — a groundbreaking book written just for autistic women navigating burnout, masking, and reclaiming their joy.
💬 “We’ve been told to mold, conform, be helpful, and not make a fuss…” And that led to decades of masking—often so well we didn’t realize the slow, quiet burnout setting in. We told ourselves:
“It’s just a stressful season.” “It’ll get better soon.” But that day never came.
Instead, we slipped into the Restoration Illusion Trap—thinking we were okay because it was better than total collapse… but far from thriving.
🚨 It’s time to flip the script.
🎁 FREE Preview of Chapter 1
🧘 Bonus Guided Meditation: “Coming Home to Your Self”
