1 - Ginny Kochis and Twice Exceptional Children
from Autistic and ADHD Kids Parenting Strategies: Every Brain is Different · host Samantha Foote
About Ginny:Ginny Kochis is a twice-exceptional mom raising three twice-exceptional kids, ages 8, 12, and 16. The eldest is autistic; the younger two have been diagnosed with GAD/OCD/ADHD. Her husband is also Twice Exceptional. Her nonfiction work is faith-based, and her fiction is secular. She is comfortable speaking from both perspectives: her work with neurodivergent families is not limited to those who ascribe to any particular faith. Her main goal is to provide support and encouragement for those who are neurodivergent, helping them navigate a world that is decidedly neurotypical in a manner that fits within their own personal boundaries and respects who they are.In 2016, Ginny founded the Not So Formulaic community for women of faith raising differently-wired kids. This ministry is person-first, meaning she seeks to help families thrive in the way they were made: unique and unrepeatable. She has developed over a dozen books and resources for this community. On May 15, 2023, she published her first novel for young adults. Under her imprint, Zelie Press Fiction, she writes stories about love, faith, friendship, and family, starring neurodivergent characters.Connect with Ginny Kochis!Websites: http://ginnykochis.com/ | https://notsoformulaic.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/authorginnykochis/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/notsoformulaic Get Ginny’s freebie! https://bit.ly/notsoformulaic Connect with Samantha Foote!Website: www.everybrainisdifferent.comEmail: [email protected]: https://www.boisemusictherapycompany.com/contact-us Connect with Samantha Foote!Website: https://everybrainisdifferent.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/everybrainisdifferentYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@everybrainisdifferent
