Your AuDHD brain holds
lineage & roots
Change your world,
not who you are.
A love note
to the deep feelers, the quiet truth-tellers, the pattern-seers, the ones who weave between logic and intuition…
I see you. I get you. I am you.
We’re the magical paradox. ADHD & Autistic. Wild & reserved. Magic & data. The hearth witch & the scientist.
We’ve made life work. Achieved things. Succeeded even.
But there’s this constant hum beneath everything—Did that land wrong? Should I have said it differently? How will this impact others?
Always calculating. Considering. Our bodies tight with the effort of it. Moving carefully through a world that rewards fast and loud.
So we learn to keep up. To perform. To hide the parts that don’t fit.
Until we refuse to any longer.
Where to Begin:
STUCK ON WHAT UNMASKING EVEN LOOKS LIKE?
I’m Adria Sophia
(she/her), quiet TEDx speaker, neurodivergent podcaster, great-granddaughter of Sophie & Antonia and guide for Autistic AuDHDers.
I help AuDHD women stop trying to fix themselves and start building lives that fit who they really are.
Over the past twelve years, I've mentored hundreds who don't fit the mold, helping them realign their businesses, leadership and lives. Many were unidentified AuDHDers who spent decades unknowingly masking.
Turns out none of us were meant to be normal.
My approach? The practical magic of redesigning your actual life—your home environment, your work structure, your relationships, your daily rhythms—to match your AuDHD nervous system instead of fighting against it.
Ecosystem design. But with soul.
The goal isn't to become someone else. It's to create a world where being exactly who you are feels sustainable & alive, not exhausting.
AuDHD Sparks:
Podcast
Imperfect, from-the-trenches wisdom about redesigning your world when you’re both Autistic AND ADHD. Sparks to follow as you figure out your own path.
Throughout history, not all women followed the same path.
Some were mothers. Yet others were healers, seers, midwives and wise women who lived at the edges and served their communities differently.
The crones who cackled. The ones who made their own rules.
They didn't apologize for being different.
They built their lives around who they actually were.
It came through your bloodline—through grandmothers who were ‘difficult,’ great-aunts who never quite fit, ancestors who saw the world differently. And it connects you to every neurodivergent human across time.
This AuDHD brain you have? It’s not new. It’s not wrong. It’s ancestral.
You’re not flawed. You’re remembering.
And also…
We are supported by all who have come before us.
What if life could feel magical?
Not the naive magic of storybook perfection but the real, raw, earthy magic that comes from lighting candles on dark mornings, cooking meals your great-grandmother made, noticing the moon’s rhythm matching your energy cycles.
The magic of feeling connected to yourself and the world. Rooted. Alive in your life.
What this looks like in practice:
Creating a home that soothes your sensory system instead of overwhelming it. Building work that honors your energy patterns instead of demanding you perform like everyone else. Relationships where you can finally unmask.
The slow unraveling of a life built for someone else, and the gentle rebuilding of one that actually fits you.
Ancient wisdom meets practical shifts.
We belong to a lineage of AuDHD women who have always been "other."
Maybe the point isn't to squeeze ourselves into the mold.
Maybe the point is to honor the difference.
the truth is…..
We’re one burnout away from not being able to mask any longer.
At some point, we'll be forced to unveil who we really are. So why not now? Why not let it be our own choice?
THIS is the sacred work of doing that unveiling. Unlocking and unkinking. Softening and melting away the tension we've held our entire lives.
I want us to go from cautious to choosing. Choosing rest when the world says hustle. Choosing to live with family when everyone expects independence. Choosing to work part-time, to be childfree, to do things that look “lazy” or “different” to others.
This is quiet rebellion.
Radical rest, unconventional choices, soft defiance.
Not the warrior with the sword. The rebellion of the healer at the edge of the village.
