This week, we have author and journalist Nefertiti Austin on the show to talk about her new book She's Just Spirited: Parenting a Neurodivergent Child and The Diagnosis that Changes Everything. Nefertiti gets real about raising a daughter with ADHD, why ADHD in girls often gets overlooked, glass children, mean girls in the fourth grade, 4:30 AM Roblox drops, and being the petty parent sometimes.
