Internalized Ableism Workshop 
and Self-Assessment

This is just a quick note to invite you to a workshop I’m putting together on how to identify and start to dismantle internalized ableism in the context of an adult Autistic and AuDHD life.

And specifically on how to notice how it may be affecting you in ways you’ve been trained not to notice, ways that you may be discriminating against yourself, and giving yourself a harder time than you really need to, because it’s been so normalized in our culture that of course you should take the blame, and push yourself, and get on your own case for things that you don’t actually need to.

By the way, internalized ableism is a huge factor in negative self talk and autistic burnout. And we’re gonna be talking about that as well.

I’ve also created an in-depth questionnaire, that I spent over a year working on and refining and fine-tuning, about internalized ableism against our own Autistic and AuDHD brains, so you can get a better picture of how you’re doing, how much this is really affecting your life. Fair warning, it will probably bring up some areas that you hadn’t realized were neuro-ableism, and that might be uncomfortable. But once you notice what’s really going on, you can start to do something about it. You can make intentional choices of if you want to do something about it, and then what.

And in the workshop I’ll be talking a little bit about how to get started dismantling your own neuro-ableism.

So if this sounds of interest to you, and you’d like to approach this from an Autistic and AuDHD perspective, the live workshop will be on November 8, it’s only $25 including the self-assessment and recording. And yes, it will be recorded and transcribed so if you don’t want to attend live, can’t make the time, want to review it again, or if you find out about this later, you can still get access to all the info and the assessment.
