We recently connected with Chloe Ellis and have shared our conversation below.

Chloe , appreciate you joining us today. We’d love to have you retell us the story behind how you came up with the idea for your business, I think our audience would really enjoy hearing the backstory.

My journey has always been about seeking authenticity and understanding who I truly am. When I was diagnosed with AuDHD, everything clicked. The challenges I had faced, the depth I carried, and the strengths I had developed all made sense. That clarity was transformative.

I realized that many neurodivergent adults were navigating their own journeys without guidance or tools to help them reflect, process, and rebuild. That inspired Unmasked & Becoming. I created a guided journal to support adults in rediscovering their identity, processing emotions, and embracing their authentic selves. It is practical, human centered, and designed to hold space for the real experience of unmasking. The response has been remarkable. People feel seen, understood, and empowered to reclaim their lives.

Chloe , love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?

I am Chloe Ellis, founder of Unmasked & Becoming, a guided journal and brand created to help neurodivergent adults explore their identity and live authentically. My work comes from lived experience and is designed to guide people through self discovery with empathy, clarity, and practical tools.

The journal encourages reflection, emotional awareness, and purposeful action. What excites me most is seeing a community form around this work. People connect, share, and find validation. It is proof that intentional spaces for self discovery can transform lives.

What’s a lesson you had to unlearn and what’s the backstory?

I learned that authenticity is far more powerful than conformity. True fulfillment comes from honoring your identity, embracing your strengths, and pursuing work and life that aligns with your values. That realization allowed me to create a business and a journal that truly serves others while reflecting who I am.

Can you share a story from your journey that illustrates your resilience?

One pivotal moment was deciding to build a new path that reflected my purpose. I trusted myself to create something meaningful and impactful even without a clear roadmap. That choice led to Unmasked & Becoming, showing me that resilience is about stepping fully into your truth and shaping the life and work you are meant to do.
