Finding Your People and More of Yourself

The masks we adopt to protect our sensitive, intense, longing, gifted selves can be so well practiced that we don’t even know we’re wearing them. We can forget or never learn the feeling of safety that comes from being accepted, understood, and respected. We’re intense and unusual. We’re neuro-atypical outliers, so let’s embrace it and practice unmasking. Together with other neurodivergents, you are invited to explore and gain perspective in communities of people who are showing up for the same reasons. You have many options opening up this autumn.

Improv For Gifted Adults Group

September 27 – November 1, 2026

Sundays from 1-3pm Eastern Time

$360/series, 6 sessions

Improv for Gifted Adults is a hilarious and emboldening annual offering. Improv is a path to gifted development that leads with laughter and play. Play requires safety and trust, and it has no goal other than itself. In Improv, we create a container that allows you to take your inner child out for ice cream. Improv has proven, again and again, that playing in a room of other outliers changes lives. In addition to the rich ‘afterparty’ discussion, the pure trustbuilding of Improv is a unique and fun way to heal old wounds.

Gifted Adult Group Experience

October 14 – November 18, 2026

Wednesdays from 6:15pm – 7:45pm Eastern Time
$375/series, 6 sessions

Gifted Adults Group Experience is a space to learn more about what giftedness is, how it co-occurs with other neurodivergences, and more about your gifted inner matrices. This six week series brings a small group of explorers together – minimum six, maximum ten. Each week builds upon the last in a group co-creation that facilitates a safe, accepting, organic, iterative process of unfolding.

Pen and Process

November 8 – 29, 2026

Sundays from 1pm – 3pm Eastern Time

$240/series, 4 sessions

Pen and Process is a space to tap into the infinite well of imagination in your consciousness. Intellect and Emotions are revered in many cultures, often at the expense of the Creative, Imaginational, and Unconscious parts of ourselves. In gifted and otherwise neurodivergent people, our complex imaginal worlds are under-nurtured and underutilized, and yet these sensibilities offer us avenues for growth and perspective that are not available any other way. This four week journey, offered in partnership with Laura Hope-Gill, will teach you new ways to see and experience yourselves and your worlds.

  • How I Healed My Gifted Trauma

    One of the ways the InterGifted community helps gifted adults is through shepherding people’s individual experience out into the world through a careful, nurturing process of publishing. In InterGifted’s latest publication – How I Healed My Gifted Trauma – gifted writers and illustrators from around the world share their paths toward wholeness. I have a long poem included. It’s titled Brood XIV and was inspired by the 17 year cicada eruption that happened in western North Carolina this year.

    “How I Healed My Gifted Trauma is a collective exploration of that journey, written and illustrated by gifted adults around the world who have faced, integrated and restored wholeness following gifted trauma. Together, we show how uniqueness, adversity, and purpose can be woven into a deeper sense of existential belonging.

    Compiled and edited by Jennifer Harvey Sallin and Lil Jedynak, in 2025. This book includes 18 stories and many more illustrations from 14 contributors.”
