What if everything you’ve been told is a weakness is actually one of your greatest strengths? In this episode of The Quiet And Strong Podcast, host David Hall sits down with leadership coach, speaker, and author Rachel Radway to explore the often-misunderstood gifts of sensitivity and neurodiversity.
Listeners will discover what it truly means to be highly sensitive and neurodivergent, and why these traits are essential assets—especially in leadership and the modern workplace. Rachel shares her personal journey of self-discovery, overcoming stigma, and embracing her unique qualities. She explains how her clients often come to her believing something is “wrong” with them, only to realize they’re far from alone and possess powerful skills like empathy, intuition, and deep perception.
Listeners should tune in to better understand themselves or the perceptive, neurodivergent people on their teams, and to challenge outdated notions about what makes an effective leader. If you’re ready to see your gifts in a new light—and help others do the same—this episode is for you.
Listen, learn, embrace your strengths, and be strong.
