Pull up a chair—you’re in the right place.

In this first episode of The Neurodivergent Lounge, host Marie Martin gets personal about what led her here: years of trying to fit into systems that weren’t designed for her ADHD/autistic brain… and the decision to stop.

Instead of buying another “fix,” she built something different—SORA Ally, an AI companion rooted in actual research. No toxic positivity. No fluff. Just tools backed by science, created by someone who lives it.

You’ll hear how this podcast became the research backbone of SORA Ally, and what to expect from the 20-episode Foundation Series ahead.

🔍 In this episode:

  • Why traditional systems fail neurodivergent brains
  • The problem with “one-size-fits-all” productivity hacks
  • How academic research helped Marie build her own success systems
  • What makes The Neurodivergent Lounge different

Perfect for:

Anyone who’s felt like they’re “too much” or “not enough” in a world built for someone else’s brain.

This is the start of something honest, hopeful, and radically validating.

Let’s begin.
