177. Dating and the Gifts of Neurodiversity with Dr. Krystal Sodaitis

In this fascinating episode, we're joined by Dr. Krystal Sodaitis, a board-certified pediatrician and expert in coaching physicians with neurodiversity. Dr. Sodaitis shares her own story of being a gifted child and how she came to the work of coaching physicians with neurodiversity. We explore the concept of neurodiversity, which embraces the idea that all differences in the brain fall into the spectrum of normal, and how having a high IQ can put people at risk for at-risk behaviors.We also discuss the struggles of being a gifted individual and the importance of embracing differences, such as having ADHD or being socially anxious, and how to handle anxiety that may arise during and after divorce. Lastly, we talk about the gifts that come with various neurodiversities, such as dyslexia, ADHD, and autism, and how to use our higher functioning areas of the brain to help us with the struggles.
