Like many late-identified autistic / AuDHD / ADHD folks,

a foggy, porous, unstructured sense of self;
illusions, fantasies, pipe dreams...
was my predominant experience of myself,
until I learned to take EFFECTIVE, STRUCTURED ACTION.

That action has to be structured a certain way
for it to be effective.
I couldn't do things the way other people did them
nor follow their ideals, without losing myself.
"falling into holes"

In finding what has worked for me, I've adapted a concept that makes a strength out of my need to go deep; my monotropic tendencies; my need for distinction depth;

A way of structuring ACTION, called 'skills stacking'.
And this week's podcast episode is about why this works.

Focusing on the next skill / system / sensorial groove
until it is established, STACKING them one by one,
has given me the material experience
of my own agency, boundaries, and effectiveness
(the antidote to a porous self)

and helped me to build belief, clarity and unconscious competence
for my big impossible dreams
at speed.

I hope it serves you too.
