Description

What does it look like to support others while learning to understand your own brain and needs? In Part 2, Cheri continues her conversation with paediatric OT Nikki Bisset, exploring emotional regulation, neurodiversity-affirming practice and the importance of meeting people where they're at. They chat about supporting children and families in ways that reflect their individual capacity, breaking down goals into achievable steps, and why emotional regulation isn't a one-size-fits-all approach. Nikki also opens up about her lived experience of ADHD, exploring how it influences her work as an OT, her experiences with medication and the importance of making informed choices about what works for you. An honest and insightful conversation about understanding yourself, embracing individual differences and recognising that meaningful support looks different for everyone. ✨ Connect with Nikki Instagram: @building.creative.children.ot Website: www.buildingcreativechildren.com.au Be sure to follow us on Instagram @ots_figuringitout This podcast is brought to you by Charge Your Mind Program, WonderGlowOT and Joyful Journey OT.
