Seeing Things Differently: Developing Inclusion and Disclosure in Uniquely Talented Individuals

We lean in today, looking ay what it means to be neurodivergant - and exploring how both as a community and a society - we embrace these beautiful differences in our brains. As we develop new paradigms - this task often requires a new language addressing it - this case can certainly be made as we approach the neurodiversity paradigm. We do this, perhaps, by seeking to understand the entire 'picture' of the neurodiverse experience - of what, where, when, how, why, and who....Then we can see where society needs to fill the gaps. The way we see things in life is often filtered by both the scope of our vision and the lens of our past experiences. Often turning into polarizing and hurtful biases.Under-appreciating the value of these differences often making it difficult for those who experience neurodiverisity to feel seen, heard, and accepted.
