I’m reading Jenara Nerenberg’s Divergent Mind: Thriving in a World that Wasn’t Designed for You
In the introduction, p. 11, she asks the questions: “How do we make space for the variety of human brains and sensory makeups we see? What happens when we stop pathologizing difference?”
I love both of these questions! The first thing that comes to mind to me is: “assume everyone is different” and get curious about that; be open to seeing the variety of human expression. Just like with cultural humility, have a practice of being curious about how each person’s brains works and processes sensory data. How woud you do this today?
