When you hear about neurodiversity, what comes to mind? Some of you might think "different." Some might say "I don’t know." Others could even say "superpower." Whatever your answer, this episode is for you as we’ll explore all three perspectives.
As we grow more knowledgeable about neurodiversity, we're uncovering the unique gifts that neurodiverse individuals bring to the table. Many of our top entrepreneurs and business leaders, like Richard Branson, Barbara Corcoran, Steve Jobs, Angela Henderson, and Elon Musk, have openly shared their neurodiversity. On a more personal level, leaders at schools need to wake up, as our children need us to best educate and nurture their superpowers. Otherwise, our children may lack the resilience to become elite leaders like the distinguished business leaders I've mentioned.
Do you know if young or teenage children have superpowers? Well, I guess you’ll have some homework to find out. Join me on this episode with my guest Dr. Tiffany Jameson as we discuss "How to Best Support Your Neurodivergent Child in All Stages."
