Neurodivergent and Third Culture: A Conversation with Ananda Bossois

Send us Fan Mail

In this episode of Neurodivergent Faith, I sit down with Ananda Bossois—a Brazilian, ADHD, third culture woman of deep faith—to explore the intersection of neurodivergence, multicultural identity, and life with God. Together, we reflect on the strengths and challenges of being both neurodivergent and third culture: the masking, the code-switching, and the holy moments of freedom when we’re fully known, trusted, and loved.

We talk about belonging, cultural expectations, and how different societies make room (or don’t) for the beauty of our differences. 

May you be blessed, wherever you are, with the courage to be your whole self— not just the self that fits, not just the self that performs, but all of who you are. May the parts of you that live between languages and labels, between expectations and instincts, be held in tenderness.
