This is Racheal

 How I Got Started

This didn’t start as a mission. It started with pizza.

I was working in hiring for a mortgage processing company, trying to fill a job nobody wanted  reviewing loan files line by line to catch compliance issues. Each county had different regulations. It was tedious, monotonous, and turnover was brutal.
We did all the usual fixes: higher pay, pizza Fridays, pep talks.
Nothing worked.
Then I hired a small group of autistic professionals  and everything changed.
They loved the job. They were focused, detail-oriented, and consistent.
Eventually, one of them looked at me and said:

“Racheal, please stop bringing us pizza. We just want to get back to our files.”

That moment cracked something open.
Why had these brilliant, capable people been struggling to get hired for years?
And why had the company been struggling to keep anyone for just as long?

Because they kept missing each other.

 

That realization sent me down the path I’m on today exploring the real disconnect between talent and systems, between potential and opportunity, between how people think and how workplaces are designed.
Since then, I’ve spent over a decade building strategies that help companies lead differently and help neurodivergent professionals stop hiding and start thriving.

And this course is the resource I wish I had back then, before the pizza.
