Navigating a Neurotypical World with a Neurodivergent Mind. Talking to people about the pitfalls and triumphs of being neurodivergent in their careers, passions, and life. I'm Stefan Glazer, diagnosed with severe inattentive ADHD and GAD at 39. I grew up thinking I was lazy, didn't try hard enough, or even that I was "stupid". However, it was the diagnosis that was a turning point in my life and led me down a path of self re-discovery. I created tools that worked for me in my lifetime, refining them to work with my mind. https://linktr.ee/Stefan.Glazer

    Today, I sat down with Scotty Weintraub, owner of Reframe Parenting—a way to help parents work with and help their neurodivergent children. Do mind there were a few technical hiccups, but you might not notice them, we were laughing a lot at things just going on the fritz, however, we still had an amazing conversation. www.reframeparenting.com www.instagram.com/reframeparenting In this conversation, Scotti discusses the inception of Reframe Parenting, born from her personal experiences as a frustrated parent navigating the challenges of raising a neurodivergent child. She emphasizes the importance of reframing perspectives on children's behaviors, advocating for understanding rather than labeling. The dialogue explores the journey of self-discovery for both parents and children, the significance of diagnosis, and the need for effective advocacy within the school system. Scotti shares insights on how parents can better support their children by understanding their unique needs and fostering open communication. In this conversation, Scotti and Stefan discuss the challenges faced by neurodivergent children in the education system and the importance of parental involvement. They explore the need to redefine success beyond traditional academic grades, emphasizing the significance of finding individual passions and the role of empathy in communication.

    Masking is a coping mechanism that most people don't really understand. Some even do it involuntarily. I talk about what I did and why I did it. It is also incredibly cathartic to talk about it.
