Hello & Welcome
About Me - Lish Greiner, RN, MHA, CYT, Lived Experience AuDHD Peer
For most of my life, I didn’t understand my own brain. I moved through the world without the language or framework of neurodivergence, and that gap left a trail of pain — for myself and for those I loved. The constant pressure to fit in, to mask, to keep going despite the overwhelm eventually led to extreme burnout that brought my life to a halt.
It was only in finally discovering that I am autistic and have ADHD that things began to shift. With that understanding came grief, yes, but also relief — and eventually, the possibility of radical acceptance. By learning to honor my wiring, instead of fighting against it, I’ve been able to rebuild my life into one that feels not only sustainable, but joyful.
Now, through writing, coaching, and community work, I share both the hard-won lessons and the practical tools that helped me move from surviving to thriving. My work is rooted in compassion, honesty, and the belief that no one is broken — we are simply wired differently.

About Us
As a couple, we’ve lived through the weight of misunderstanding. For years, we struggled with the invisible gap between our brains — my (Lish’s) undiagnosed neurodivergence and Linda’s neurotypical perspective often left us at odds, unsure how to bridge the distance. That disconnect brought real pain and tension into our relationship, even though love and commitment were always there.
Everything began to change when I finally received the language of autism and ADHD. With that understanding came a new lens — not just for me, but for us. Instead of blaming or misreading one another, we began to see our differences for what they were: different wirings, not flaws. Radical acceptance became the foundation that allowed us to move from survival mode into a relationship that feels sustainable, connected, and deeply supportive.
Now, we bring both sides of that lived experience into our work. Together, we help other inter-neurotype couples recognize their patterns, break cycles of misunderstanding, and create space for compassion and thriving. Our journey wasn’t easy, but it taught us that with understanding and acceptance, love can not only survive difference — it can be strengthened by it.
