In today’s episode, we’re joined by the incredible Alice Reeves, founder of Joyfully Different — a business dedicated to helping neurodivergent individuals create systems that actually work for them (not against them 🙌).

Alice shares her personal journey of struggle and triumph, starting with the massive burnout she experienced during the pandemic when her business unexpectedly tripled. While the excitement of growing a business should have been thrilling, Alice found herself without an outlet for all the energy she was taking on from others. This led to a breakdown that resulted in an ADHD diagnosis, ultimately pushing her to rethink and create a work-life structure that truly worked for her. 🌈

Her story doesn’t end there. As a teen, Alice was diagnosed with an eating disorder, but later discovered it was actually undiagnosed OCD, ADHD, and autistic traits that had been converging all along. Through her journey, she sought help from a trauma coach, who guided her in regulating her nervous system. Today, she can recognize her triggers and respond with kindness and love — practices she now uses to support neurodivergent clients in creating tailored systems to thrive. 💖✨

Join us as Alice takes us through how she transformed her personal struggles into a thriving business and shares her insights on how neurodivergent individuals can find work-life balance and success on their own terms. 💼🌟
