[rebroadcast] the gifts of dyslexia, ADHD and neurodiversity for teens with nicole connell
Description
[originally aired 1/19/21] Hey brilliant one! Yeah you ;) Ever notice how our dominant culture has a very narrow and dumb story about what being ‘smart’ means? How certain classes are ‘better’? And neurodiverse folks often have to bear the burden alone of our dumb systems and limited understanding of ‘intelligence’? Today, me and my guest are unpacking that. Nicole Connell is a learning fairy godmother (best term ever) and we’re talking about: why neurodiversity is what the world needs, how diagnoses like ‘adhd’ and ‘dyslexia’ focus on learning challenges and completely ignore the gifts, WHAT some of the gifts actually are (!!!), some tips for adults/parents/educators, and so much more! Come listen :) xo, Eliza
