A Beautiful Mind Dr Selena Fisk What image comes to mind when you think about someone living with neuro distinction? Is it that it is an illness that can be cured? or that neurodistinct people struggle to hold down a job? Or that people identifying with the same 'labels' require the same supports? Even though we’re hearing more and more about neuro distinction, many ‘go-to’ stereotypes remain, which aren’t super helpful if you’ve just been diagnosed or are wondering how to help someone who has. A Beautiful Mind takes you way beyond the stereotypes and into the minds and stories of people living with neurodistinctions.

These are powerful, hard hitting, and real stories, giving anyone who listens deep insight, empathy and a beautiful reminder o UBCNews - Apps & Software UBCNews UBC News - Apps & Software is your favorite digital storyteller and trustworthy news source.
