What began as a collaborative autoethnographic study of five adult-diagnosed neurodivergent women in academia evolved into a vibrant community space centered on neurodivergent joy and affirmation. Through written and oral storytelling, preliminary findings reveal that limited exposure to other neurodivergent individuals fosters internalized stigma, self-denial, and unmet needs among women in higher education. In-group community, however, promotes healing and improved perceived mental health. As diagnoses of autism and ADHD increase among women, many still lack institutional support and safe spaces to unmask. This immersive panel invites neurodivergent participants into storytelling and dialogue to model community-building, strengths-based sense-making, and neurodivergent flourishing.
