We’re reframing the classroom as a space for advocacy, understanding, and the celebration of different minds.In this episode, we reframe:The Safety Signal: Why your brain "shuts down" in high-pressure learning environments.The Power of Kindness: How empathy acts as a catalyst for neurodivergent growth.Self-Advocacy 101: Learning to ask for what you need without the "mask."The Self-Acceptance Shift: Moving from "difficult student" to "divergent thinker."Kindness is a strategy.
