What Are My Strengths? Why it’s hard for neurodivergent people and how to recognise strengths through awareness, authenticity, and the right environment.

The Constant Doubt: What Am I Even Good At? What are my strengths? Some people can list their strengths like a recipe. For many neurodivergent people, it feels more like fog: you sense that something is there, but it’s hard to grasp.
