Proposal: New labels for The Neurodivergent Movement re: social adversity

So, I talked about this at my ASHA 2023 talk, made an image carousel on Instagram, and did rambly Youtube video on this, but figured I'd do a quick podcast ep on this as well, cause I've found myself using these terms more and more these days and, well, I just think it's good to clarify when we're talking about societal/social adversity vs. individual neurodivergent profiles.
