What does it mean to be disabled versus simply different?
In this episode of ADHD Eavesdrop, Janine VanStee talks with advocate and children's book author Lynn Greenberg about neurodiversity, learning differences, and the importance of representation for children with ADHD, dyslexia, and other cognitive differences.
Lynn co-created the Creative Cab Company children's book series with her son, creating stories that highlight strengths, creativity, and unique perspectives in kids whose brains work differently.
Together they explore how labels can both help and harm, how representation shapes confidence, and why helping children see themselves reflected in stories can be incredibly powerful.
This conversation looks at neurodiversity through a hopeful lens—focusing on acceptance, empowerment, and the idea that differences can also be strengths.

• ADHD and dyslexia • Neurodiversity and learning differences • Disability vs. difference • Why representation in children's books matters • Helping kids build confidence and identity • The power of storytelling for neurodivergent children
