You Got: The Pretender

Score Range: 12–24

You’ve been playing it safe...

But something’s starting to itch.

What’s Really Going On...

You’ve been doing what most people are taught to do... keeping things tidy, polite, and professional.

Avoiding drama. Staying in line.

But deep down? You’re starting to notice the cracks.

You’ve probably:

Kept your head down when someone made a dodgy comment
Felt awkward about ‘difference’ but didn’t know what to say
Equated inclusion with being nice to everyone
Thought staying neutral meant you weren’t part of the problem

People don’t always remember what you said.

But they feel when you say nothing.

What this tells us:

This isn’t about blame or getting it right from day one.

It’s about noticing... and you’re doing that!

You took the quiz. You’re still here.

That odd feeling in your tummy?

That nagging in the back of your mind?

However it shows up for you... that’s your brain doing its thing.

That’s growth.

That’s the nudge to stop pretending.

Honestly?

We chuffing love that for you.

You’ve probably spent years being steered to colour inside the lines... not because you’re dull, but because school, work, and the old rulebook made it feel like the only way to succeed.

Smile through discomfort.

Avoid the awkward.

But here’s the thing reyt... those lines were drawn decades ago for a version of life that doesn’t fit most of us now.

Especially if your brain, identity, or background doesn’t play by the ‘norms’.

Neuroinclusion isn’t about smashing it up for drama.

It’s about asking who’s missing, and why.

An Instagram story layout with a collage of six vibrant images and the phrase “Colour Outside The Lines” written in a playful handwritten font at the bottom. Top left: A notebook with a cute cartoon snail and the phrase “Progress, not perfection.” Top right: A multicoloured scribble-style portrait of a woman on a bright yellow background. Middle left: Three lightbulbs on a pink surface — two dark grey, one pale blue in the middle. Middle right: A pile of cartoon brain stickers with phrases like “Oh Mind Goodness” and “Oh Synapse!” Bottom left: A hand-drawn diagram showing “Comfort Zone,” “Fear Zone,” and “Learning Zone” overlapping in pastel colours. Bottom right: More brain-themed stickers. The overall design encourages creative thinking and neuroinclusion with a bold, expressive visual style.

What it actually means:

You don’t need a badge. You don’t need permission.

You just need to give a toss and keep going.

Start noticing your habits. Your reactions. Your silences.

Ask better questions. Expect messy answers.

This isn’t about getting it perfect... it’s about starting somewhere honest.

And this?

This is you levelling up.

Retro-style 'LEVEL UP' graphic with gradient block letters in pink, blue, and purple tones, stacked above three upward-pointing chevrons. The design mimics classic video game visuals and symbolises progress or transformation.
