Black Girl, Brown Girl...Squirrel! A Podcast for Neurodivergent Women of Color

Welcome to Black Girl, Brown Girl… Squirrel! — the podcast for Black, Hispanic, Latina, and Asian women who are Neurodivergent (or wondering if they might be).

We’re your Sista Squirrels 🐿️ Shai and Lex — here to celebrate the chaos, the brilliance, and the hilarity of brains that don’t follow the “default settings.” Around here, tangents are the point.

We talk about life with:

🌀 ADHD — from hyperfocus to forgotten keys (again).
✨ Autism / AuDHD — deep dives, sensory adventures, and social “huh?” moments.
💭 Anxiety & Depression — the not-so-fun side quests.
💡 Self-diagnosis & discovery — figuring it out as we go.

Expect unfiltered stories, laughter that derails into tangents, and the relief of knowing you’re not the only one. Whether you’ve got a diagnosis, are self-identifying, or just suspect your brain might be running on a custom operating system, you belong here.

So grab your snacks, follow the chaos, and come squirrel with us. Life’s way more fun (and way less lonely) when you realize “off the rails” is the best track.

Host

Lex

Alexis - or Lex as most call her - is one half of Black Girl, Brown Girl…Squirrel!

A longtime podcast listener turned creator (unexpectedly) , Lex brings humor, curiosity, and candor to every episode. Podcasting is her opportunity to share how she navigates life as a Black, Neurodivergent woman with others on the same journey. It’s also an excuse to giggle with her bestie - she’s mostly excited for that part!

When she’s not recording , Lex is probably tending to her plants named after K-Pop singers, or trying to solve the plot twist in a mystery novel. She also channels her love of order and calm into her occasional side hustle as a personal organizer.
