12. Neurodiversity and Positive Intelligence: Embracing Our Neurological Sage

I'd love to hear from you!Neurodivergence is a word we hear everywhere and has gained popularity among those who identify as such. Whether it's ADHD, autism, dyslexia, or some other form of difference from what is called "neurotypical," many might wonder whether the stigma attached to neurological differences has really disappeared.  In episode 12 of the podcast Emotional Intelligence: Your Greatest Asset and Key to Success, Jami Carlacio interviews two guests--LaMyra McGee, a licensed school psychologist, and Bob Palacios, a software engineer, on their experience as persons identifying as neurodivergent. Jami herself also identifies as neurodivergent, and as this episode demonstrates, there is more to people than their neurological differences. Are any of us really all that different? Do we need a label to describe how we process information and relate to the world? How might Positive Intelligence help us navigate a complex world where difference is more often seen as "othering" than something to be embraced?  Show Notes:  LaMyra McGee IG & TikTok - @asktheschoolpsych LinkedIn - http://linkedin.com/in/lamyramcgee  Bob Palacios Website: https://bobsyour.coach LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/bobpalacios/ IG: https://www.instagram.com/bobs.your.coachCelebrate neurodiversity: https://www.neurodiversityweek.com/ https://happymind.co/inclusion-calendar/neurodiversity-celebration-week/ https://www.health.harvard.edu/blog/what-is-neurodiversity-202111232645Support the showWant to learn how to build your EQ?  Let's meet to see if working together is good fit.  * Calendar: https://calendly.com/jami-carlacio/virtual-coffee * Email:  [email protected] (mailto:%[email protected]) * Find out more about my coaching services: https://jamicarlacio.com* LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jami-carlacio/* FaceBook: https://www.facebook.com/jamicarlacioEQ   * Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamicarlacio1/* YouTube: https://tinyurl.com/jamicarlacio1* TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@jcarlacio* Substack: https://substack.com/@eqmaven* I'd appreciate your support the show by buying me a cup of coffee: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2167520/supporters/new
