    Neurodivergence...it really is a spectrum

    Forget the aisle-there are so many neurospicy flavor packets we get our own store! Too often people hear “neurodivergent” and think Autistic or ADHD and dyslexia. But neurodivergence is way more than most people realize. In this episode, Molly & Angela share the origin of the word neurodivergence, its original definition, the fabulousness of Neuroqueer, and how important it is for folks to realize the vast diversity of the human mind.   Neuroqueer Heresies - Nick Walker - https://neuroqueer.com Kassiane Asasumasu - twitter @UVGKassi Models of Disability: https://autistictic.com/2020/02/14/the-holistic-model-of-disability/ BrainFacts List of 400 Neurological Conditions: https://www.brainfacts.org/diseases-and-disorders/neurological-disorders-az Crisis Support: https://988lifeline.org/

    Don’t Tell Me To Function

    The Struggle Bus is real. Oh, shit, can I say that? Today's conversation takes Angela and Molly into the DSM 5 game of Autistic "levels" of support.  Where they will talk all about the importance of words, how outdated words need to go (maybe), why functioning labels (in all forms) can fly a freakin' kite and also, we see the point of those who say they should stay. Join the conversation, and help us find word solutions for ALL members of our Neurodivergent Community. What do you want to know?

    Stress, Silos, and Racing Thoughts

    “Have you ever had something you were looking forward to so much, and you had to put so much effort and energy in planning that thing and it's consumed your mind and kept you up at night?

Because you're putting so much effort into this thing?” (Molly, 1:49)  Yeah, this happened to Angela as they prepared for and then hosted a huge, very important event for them, and we dare say the entire ND community.

    Advocacy and IEP with Rebecca A. Weiner, M. ED.

    Rebecca A. Weiner, M.Ed. is back with us today in this powerful episode about inclusion, advocacy and self-advocacy, IEPs and other learning plans and goal-setting, and the power of curiosity (seriously, she has an amazing story about a classroom transformation all thanks to the power of “so what” and “what-if” in one of the classrooms she has collaborated with).  Molly brings in real-life questions and experiences from a parent perspective and Angela speaks about poverty, justice, and access—or lack of it—to resources which make it easier or exponentially more difficult for students, parents, teachers, staff members, schools, and the community to have what they need for education to be meaningful and effective.   RESOURCES Stimagz*: https://www.stimagz.com/products/stimagz-12?ref=drudgeryanddreams Coupon Code = DNDDStim for 15% off your entire purchase Rebecca’s website: www.learnplaygrowconsulting.com Rebecca on IG:https://www.instagram.com/learnplaygrowconsulting/ Rebecca on FB: https://m.facebook.com/RebeccaAWeinerMEd Rebecca on LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/RebeccaAWeinerMEd Rebecca on Easter: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/rebeccaaweinermed_easter-egg-hunts-can-be-so-much-fun-and-activity-7048695370402459648-cViz?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop IDEA - https://sites.ed.gov/idea/ and https://sites.ed.gov/idea/language-support/ The Sum of Us Podcast: https://www.thesumofuspodcast.com/ The Sum of Us Book: https://bookshop.org/p/books/the-sum-of-us-what-racism-costs-everyone-and-how-we-can-prosper-together-heather-mcghee/14618549?aid=25144&ean=9780525509585&listref=inclusion-equity-and-justice Family to Family Network in Houston: https://f2fn.org/   What do you want to know?
