Acerca de esta escucha
A neurodivergent's guide to embracing your true self and finding your happily ever after.
Growing up, Chloé Hayden felt like she'd crash-landed on an alien planet where nothing made sense. Eye contact? Small talk? And why are you people so touch-oriented? She moved between 10 schools in 8 years, struggling to become a person she believed society would accept, and was eventually diagnosed with autism and ADHD. When a life-changing group of allies showed her that different did not mean less, she learned to celebrate her true voice and find her happily ever after.
This is a moving, at times funny story of how it feels to be neurodivergent as well as a practical guide, with advice for living with meltdowns and shutdowns, tips for finding supportive communities and much more.
Whether you're neurodivergent or supporting those who are, Different, Not Less will inspire you to create a more inclusive world where everyone feels like they belong.
Chloé Hayden is an award-winning actor and disability advocate, motivational speaker and social media influencer whose story of being 'different, not less' has attracted a worldwide following. She stars as Quinni in Heartbreak High, the Netflix remake of the iconic Australian series.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Historia
From childhood, Laura James knew she was different. She struggled to cope in a world that often made no sense to her, as though her brain had its own operating system. It wasn't until she reached her 40s that she found out why: Suddenly and surprisingly, she was diagnosed with autism. With a touching and searing honesty, Laura challenges everything we think we know about what it means to be autistic. Married with four children and a successful journalist, Laura examines the ways in which autism has shaped her career, her approach to motherhood, and her closest relationships.

In Unmasking Autism, Dr. Devon Price shares their personal experience with masking and blends history, social science research, prescriptions, and personal profiles to tell a story of neurodivergence that has thus far been dominated by those on the outside looking in. For Dr. Price and many others, Autism is a deep source of uniqueness and beauty. Unfortunately, living in a neurotypical world means it can also be a source of incredible alienation and pain.

Historia
Autism—that’s being able to count matches really fast and knowing that 7 August 1984 was a Tuesday, right? Well, no. In this book, Bianca Toeps explains in great detail what life is like when you’re autistic. She does this by looking at what science says about autism (and why some theories can go straight in the trash), but also by telling her own story and interviewing other autistics.

Historia
This intimate memoir reveals the woman inside one of autism’s most prominent figures, Jennifer O'Toole. At the age of 35, Jennifer was diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome, and for the first time in her life, things made sense. Now, she exposes the constant struggle between carefully crafted persona and authentic existence, editing the autism script with wit, candor, passion, and power. Her journey is one of reverse-self-discovery not only as an Aspie but - more importantly - as a thoroughly modern woman.

In Dirty Laundry, life partners Rich Pink and Rox Emery unapologetically guide you through the ups and downs of life with ADHD.

Historia
If you’re struggling to stay on top of your to-do list, you probably have a good reason: anxiety, fatigue, depression, ADHD, or lack of support. For therapist KC Davis, the birth of her second child triggered a stress-mess cycle. The more behind she felt, the less motivated she was to start. She didn’t fold a single piece of laundry for seven months. One life-changing realization restored her sanity—and the functionality of her home: You don’t work for your home; your home works for you.

Have you ever wondered "Why did I do that?" or "Why can't I just control my behavior?" Others may judge our reactions and think, "What's wrong with that person?" When questioning our emotions, it's easy to place the blame on ourselves; holding ourselves and those around us to an impossible standard. It's time we started asking a different question. Through deeply personal conversations, Oprah Winfrey and renowned brain and trauma expert Dr. Bruce Perry offer a groundbreaking and profound shift from asking “What’s wrong with you?” to “What happened to you?”

Every day we experience the uncertainty, risks, and emotional exposure that define what it means to be vulnerable or to dare greatly. Based on 12 years of pioneering research, Dr. Brené Brown dispels the cultural myth that vulnerability is weakness and argues that it is, in truth, our most accurate measure of courage. Brown explains how vulnerability is both the core of difficult emotions like fear, grief, and disappointment, and the birthplace of love, belonging, joy, empathy, innovation, and creativity.

Niamh Garvey offers tips and tricks designed to reduce sensory and emotional stress and look after your autistic self. From understanding what's happening when the stress response kicks in to using the 'detective habit' to spot your individual strengths and triggers.

Historia
Autism therapy typically focuses on ridding individuals of “autistic” symptoms such as difficulties interacting socially, problems in communicating, sensory challenges, and repetitive behavior patterns. Now Dr. Barry M. Prizant offers a new and compelling paradigm: The most successful approaches to autism don’t aim at fixing a person by eliminating symptoms, but rather seeking to understand the individual’s experience and what underlies the behavior. Rather than curb these behaviors, it’s better to enhance abilities, build on strengths, and offer supports.

Garcia began writing about autism because he was frustrated by the media’s coverage of it; the myths that the disorder is caused by vaccines, the narrow portrayals of autistic people as white men working in Silicon Valley. His own life as an autistic person didn’t look anything like that.

Historia
How much love do you have for yourself? Not the narcissistic "aren't I wonderful?" kind of love but the essential regard for self that empowers you and helps you navigate through life. The type of love that enables you to feel safe and secure in who you are and inspires you to make choices that are good for your authentic self. When scientist David Hamilton realized that his own lack of self-love was sabotaging him in hundreds of subtle ways and more than a handful of major ways, he devised an experiment using himself as the guinea pig.

Historia
Superheroes don't start from glorious beginnings. Their origins are almost always marked by traumatic events that leave them helpless and scared. Batman witnessed his parents' murder. Superman was sent away from his dying planet with no one to guide him as he grew up. Orphaned Catwoman was forced to steal food to survive on the streets of Gotham. What makes these superheroes super is their determination to not be defined by helplessness. They embrace their origins, their flaws, and their mistakes and strive every day to become the best versions of themselves.

As a global pandemic shuttered schools across the country in 2020, parents found themselves thrust into the role of teacher — in more ways than one. Not only did they take on remote school supervision, but after the murder of George Floyd and the ensuing Black Lives Matter protests, many also grappled with the responsibility to teach their kids about social justice — with few resources to guide them.

From childhood, Laura James knew she was different. She struggled to cope in a world that often made no sense to her, as though her brain had its own operating system. It wasn't until she reached her 40s that she found out why: Suddenly and surprisingly, she was diagnosed with autism. With a touching and searing honesty, Laura challenges everything we think we know about what it means to be autistic. Married with four children and a successful journalist, Laura examines the ways in which autism has shaped her career, her approach to motherhood, and her closest relationships.

If her teacher couldn't answer “why” in class, she dissolved into tears, unable to articulate her own confusion or explain her lack of control.

The future of our society depends on our gifted children - the population in which we'll find our next Isaac Newton, Albert Einstein, or Virginia Woolf. Yet the gifts and talents of some of our most brilliant kids may never be recognized because these children fall into a group known as twice exceptional, or "2e". Twice exceptional kids are both gifted and diagnosed with a disability - often ADHD or an autism spectrum disorder - leading teachers and parents to overlook the child's talents and focus solely on his weaknesses.

In truth, it is both of these things and more - and the future of our society depends on our understanding it. Wired reporter Steve Silberman unearths the secret history of autism, long suppressed by the same clinicians who became famous for discovering it, and finds surprising answers to the crucial question of why the number of diagnoses has soared in recent years.

With so many affected, it is time to revisit our perceptions of people with disabilities. Psychologist and educator Thomas Armstrong illuminates a new understanding of neuropsychological disorders. He argues that if they are a part of the natural diversity of the human brain, they cannot simply be defined as illnesses. Armstrong explores the evolutionary advantages, special skills, and other positive dimensions of these conditions.

Words can not begin to describe her influence!!!
Never have I found a more relatable book. Chloe Hayden demonstrates infallible vulnerability, courage, and selflessness by sharing her experience. "Different, Not Less" speaks to the stigma of mental health and the discrimination Neurodivergent people face in our own communities. While I live in North America and am a white Transgender Female in my 20s', there are countless number of differences but there are just as many similarities. Chloe you are so incredibly brave and your story inspires me to embrace all that I am with acceptance and love. I have found so much of myself by hearing your story and you give me the courage to share mine and strive to advocate for myself and others here in the U.S.
Thank You Chloe, and all of your sidekicks.

Absolute Must-read!
I really wish this was 6th or 7th grade required reading. The author does an amazing job highlighting the uniqueness of the neurodivergent mind. Having someone on the spectrum's perspective is so refreshing. I'm on the spectrum as are my 4 children with all of our different "spice" blends and this book was truly empowering. I'm having my 10 and 15 year olds listen to it and have asked my entire family and friend group to read it as well.

I was diagnosed with ADHD as an adult, and I am raising a child with ADHD as well. Neither of us have autism, but so many of the behaviors overlap. This book was fantastic for my personal growth and for helping me raise my kid. You can hear the passion in the author’s voice as she reads. Everyone - neurodivergent and neurotypical - should read this book.

A beautiful and true story about how one woman made her dreams come true
Too often, stories about autistic folks and about those who struggle with mental health only show one side of the story. Chloé tells her story and relates it to the other stories she knows. It felt like she was telling my story at times and the fact that she reads the book aloud makes it more personal and authentic. I love how I can hear every laugh, every inflection of her voice. I feel like she is actually telling her story, not just reading it. I don’t find many books that give true resources and tools that help with mental health and neurodivergence. I also deeply appreciated the specific content warnings right before each section, not just as an overall warning for the entire book. This made me feel seen and allowed me to navigate this book with love and care toward myself. As a psychologist and a writer, I am very critical of the content that is spread about mental health, neurodivergence, and disabilities. Chloé’s lived experience and extensive research felt more honest and credible than most of the books I have read on the subject. There was no part that made me cringe or made me feel like she was trying to speak for the entire community. I definitely recommend to anyone regardless of your experience or knowledge about neurodivergence or mental health!

Chloe is such a sweet and important voice in the autism community. Her role in Heart Break high made me feel so represented as an autistic person so when I heard about this book I knew I had to read it.
Her story is so similar to mine and the way she sees our lives as fairy tales helps me to see our challenges in such a more hopeful light.
This book includes so much good advice and relatable stories for autistic people. I highly recommend it

Just WOW!
My daughter is 2 years younger than Chloe. This could be her story, except she is still working to find her happily ever after. The openness with which Chloe shares her story is beautiful. My daughter, and so many others can read this and see themselves. They can see hope for their own futures if they can find and focus on their own, ‘eye sparkles.’
She speaks openly about the struggles, bullying (by both adults and peers), desertion by so called friends, feeling of wrongness, societal dismissal, and pain she has faced.
The book contains advice for both neuro diverse individuals and those who care about them. We, as a global society, must change our mindset.
I am sending audible copies to everyone I know with an audible account, kindle books to others. As soon as the book is available in print in the US, I will be purchasing copies for everyone who knows and interacts with my daughter. I will also be purchasing a few copies to keep on hand to share with new members of our circle who need to read this book.
