The middle place
You’re highly educated, intelligent, hardworking, and diligent, but somehow, you keep ending up as the target of workplace bullies, office politics, or being told you’re “not a culture fit.” Inevitably, you leave your role, burned out, frustrated, or pushed out, and then have to start over again, often in a lower position.
Your confidence takes a hit. You feel disoriented, unsure how to behave the next time, and increasingly withdrawn. You start to wonder: “Is this going to be my life forever?”
This cycle makes it hard to grow in your career, have your voice heard, or do the work you intended and enjoy. It also takes a toll on your life outside of work, with financial pressures, stop-start employment, and even gaps in your CV creating guilt and shame. You’re running on burnout instead of thriving.
For many neurodivergent people, this is the same story we’ve seen thousands of times. The mismatch is clear: your work style, your communication style, and the type of work you want to do are often completely misaligned with the organisations, colleagues, or managers you’ve ended up with.
We call this program The Middle Place because it’s the spot you keep bouncing out from in the “crazy eight loop,” the place where you’re stuck in a perpetuating cycle you can’t seem to break free from. The Middle Place is designed to help you stop the loop, get into a financially stable position, and create a life where you can thrive at work and at home, with more confidence, stability, and happiness.
Designed By NEURODIVRGENT Recruiters
The Middle Place isn’t just written by neurodivergent people - it’s created by neurodivergent recruiters who understand how the workforce really works.
We know both sides: the fear of leaving a job, the anxiety of explaining career gaps, and the biases and rigid expectations you face from neurotypical recruiters.
Too many programs are written by people with little or no corporate experience, offering idealistic advice that doesn’t hold up in reality. We’ve seen what happens when neurodivergent employees are pressured into disclosure, mishandled by HR, or left unprotected - that’s why we don’t sugarcoat.
Instead, we provide honest, practical guidance grounded in real-world recruiting experience. The kind that prepares you for what actually happens in workplaces (yes, there’s a reason employment lawyers are still in business).
This program is built so you can finally step out of the burnout cycle, face career challenges with confidence, and create a sustainable life that works for you.
Find YOUR FREEDOM
This program means so much to us here at Unplaced. We’ve seen the patterns over and over again -neurodivergent people stuck in cycles of burnout, confusion, and frustration, unsure how to move forward. There’s nothing out there quite like The Middle Place, and we know how many questions you have and how much clarity you’re craving.
The Middle Place is the result of years of research, lived experience, and pattern recognition, combined with our work in recruitment and time spent observing "People & Culture" teams, listening to what’s being said on the neurotypical side of workplaces. We’ve spoken to hundreds of neurodivergent professionals and collected thousands of real stories. We’ve studied the gaps between what workplaces expect and what neurodivergent people bring to the table, and we’ve seen firsthand how mismatched roles, fragile manager egos, conflicting communication styles, and misunderstood honesty and directness lead to repeated cycles of burnout.
This isn’t just theory. Every insight in this program comes from real-world experience, both from our own careers and from the people we’ve worked alongside. We know what it’s like to feel like you’re doing everything “right” and still end up frustrated, misunderstood, or pushed out. We also know how hard it can be to figure out the next step—how to plan, how to recover, and how to build a career and life that actually works for you.
We want to get this right. We don’t want to rush it. We’ve poured everything we’ve learned, observed, and lived into The Middle Place to make sure it’s practical, honest, and actionable. It’s designed to give you clarity, confidence, and a real pathway out of the loop, so you can finally stop spinning in circles and start building a life where you thrive at work, at home, and financially.
The program will be available soon, but in the meantime, you can sign up to be notified when we launch. We want you to have this guidance the moment it’s ready, and most importantly, we want you to take care of yourself in the meantime. You deserve it.
