In this episode of Autistic Identity With NeuroHub, David Gray-Hammond explores the Ecosystemic Model of Distress and Wellbeing; a framework for understanding neurodivergent experience not as a problem located inside the individual, but as something that emerges within a complex ecosystem of interacting environments. Drawing on concepts including the Autistic rhizome, mycelial community, and nested environments, David makes the case for a complete reorientation of how we think about Autistic and neurodivergent wellbeing. This episode closes with an invitation to engage with the neurodivergent-led offerings of NeuroHub Community.
