Surviving the Holiday Work Party as an Autistic and ADHD Professional

Season 1 · Episode 2

Friday, November 29, 2024 • Duration 10:50

For many of us who are autistic or have ADHD, the holiday work party can feel like walking into uncharted territory. With unspoken rules, social expectations, and the added sensory overload, these events can become a source of anxiety rather than joy. But it doesn’t have to be that way. With the right strategies, you can navigate holiday work functions while prioritizing your comfort and authenticity.

Holiday work parties blur the line between personal and professional. While they’re often framed as fun social gatherings, they are still work events—complete with implicit codes of conduct. For neurodivergent professionals, this duality can make navigating them particularly tricky.

Hi, I’m Brett, the AuDHD Boss, an autistic leader with ADHD and over a decade of leadership experience. I understand how challenging these events can be, which is why I’ve compiled my best tips to help you not just survive but thrive at your next holiday work party.

What are my autism and ADHD symptoms and traits

Season 1 · Episode 1

Sunday, November 17, 2024 • Duration 16:09

Autism symptoms often go unnoticed, especially in adults. Join Brett, the AuDHD Boss, as they unpack their late-diagnosis journey and key autism traits that shaped their life and career. A note about language: I’m using the term symptoms in the title of this video for the purposes of search, but what I am describing from my personal experience are my autistic and ADHD (AudHD) traits. As you read the resources you’ll find the use of the word traits rather than symptoms because "symptom" often has a negative connotation. Traits, however, speaks to a more lived experience. This video also only represents a small portion of my traits and just a sample of how it shows up in my life. On this channel, I share insights about navigating ADHD and autism in the workplace, using a strengths-based approach to help neurodivergent professionals thrive. In this video, I dive into my personal experience with autism symptoms as a late-diagnosed adult. Using reflections from my diagnosis journal, I explore key traits like masking, struggles with change, sensory sensitivities, social rules, executive dysfunction, and more. I also share how discovering the unique overlap of ADHD and autism symptoms led to my "aha" moments. With over ten years of leadership experience and training in the corporate workplace, these videos are my views only and don't reflect or represent any of my current or past employers. I am not a medical professional, this video is for educational purposes only.

The Five Burnout Work Symptoms Your Boss Can Fix Now

Season 1 · Episode 7

Sunday, December 29, 2024 • Duration 14:19

What are the five burnout work symptoms your boss or organization can address to help reduce burnout from work? And what kind of leadership styles help prevent burnout at work? Can your boss actually help you avoid burnout? 🤔 In this episode, I explore a recent study on workplace burnout from the National Library of Medicine and break down how leadership styles, organizational culture, and rest can make or break employee well-being and employee engagement. We'll discuss: ✅ The five main causes of burnout at work ✅ How managers can support employees, including those with ADHD and autism. ✅ Why transformational leadership is a game-changer for reducing burnout. ✅ The importance of clean breaks, rest, and work-life balance for neurodivergent professionals. As an autistic leader with ADHD, I share insights on how these findings resonate with neurodivergent minds, along with actionable strategies to protect your mental health and thrive at work.

How to communicate better at work: ADHD and Autism Edition

Season 1 · Episode 5

Sunday, December 15, 2024 • Duration 08:10

How to Balance Context and Conciseness at Work: Tips for Autistic and ADHD Professionals

As neurodivergent professionals—whether autistic, ADHD, or both—we often love diving deep into problems, unraveling their complexities, and solving puzzles at work. But what happens when our need for context clashes with a workplace culture that values conciseness?

Too often, the details we share can come across to managers or neurotypical coworkers as excuses or complaints instead of what they really are: a well-thought-out analysis. This can create misunderstandings and frustrations, especially when communicating with senior leaders or “holistic” thinkers who focus on big-picture solutions.

So, how do you balance your need for detail with the workplace's demand for clear and concise communication? I’m Brett, the AuDHD Boss, and in this post, I’ll share practical, strengths-based strategies to help you communicate effectively in professional settings.
