ABOUT THIS EPISODE
This week, Kayla Tucker—school psychologist and CEO of Whole School Psych @wholeschoolpsych —joins me to talk about navigating neurodivergence. We’re digging into:
• how neurodivergence shows up at work, school, and home
• practical tools for focus, routines, and executive function
• self-advocacy and communicating your needs
• how loved ones can support with compassion (not assumptions)
If you or someone you love is ADHD, autistic, or otherwise neurodivergent—or you’re just curious—this one’s for you.
