概要

 In ep 22 of The Business Oddcast, we discuss the complexities of communicating needs and collaborating with neurotypical individuals within a business context. We deep dive on how you can get your needs met, and keeping lines of communication clear. We explore how we, the neurodivergent, often feel that advocating for ourself is like a "hostage negotiation," leading to overexplaining or apologizing for our existence. We try to move the needle from "please accommodate me" toward one of equity, helping others understand that “accommodations”, such as specific lighting or noise levels, are more than simple preferences but essential tools that make work possible and create a level playing field. The topic of boundaries and building two-way trust in professional relationships is unpicked and discuss how a "catch and release" policy prevents the self employed person becoming "financial hostages" to clients who ignore boundaries or demand constant availability. We trauma dump the lived experience of self-employment and highlight the benefits of self-employment for the neurodiverse. Please share with anyone you think this topic might resonate with.
