Angela and Molly are info dumping all about rigidity and how it affects everything from day to day life, traveling, work--you know all the things us neurospicy people experience. Listen in as Angela shares how she is flexible when flexibility is the known expectation (like teaching middle school) and how they mistook this for being flexible in general. And Molly shares why she cried over the lack of guacamole at Chipotle.

Forget the aisle-there are so many neurospicy flavor packets we get our own store! Too often people hear “neurodivergent” and think Autistic or ADHD and dyslexia. But neurodivergence is way more than most people realize. In this episode, Molly & Angela share the origin of the word neurodivergence, its original definition, the fabulousness of Neuroqueer, and how important it is for folks to realize the vast diversity of the human mind.

Raise your hand if you have bought a planner, used it for a good two weeks, and then left it to die in a drawer or doom pile filled with more planners. The complexities that are being multi-passionate, and an intense planner who may or may not need flexibility leads you to a planner graveyard. You can never find something that is both rigid and flexible. You're not asking for a lot right?! If you raised your hand then this week's episode with Angela and Molly is just what you need. Guest Sabra Gilbert is here to talk about how she decided enough was enough--and design her own planner that's perfect for the Neurodivergent User.

The Struggle Bus is real. Oh, shit, can I say that? Today's conversation takes Angela and Molly into the DSM 5 game of Autistic "levels" of support. Where they will talk all about the importance of words, how outdated words need to go (maybe), why functioning labels (in all forms) can fly a freakin' kite and also, we see the point of those who say they should stay. Join the conversation, and help us find word solutions for ALL members of our Neurodivergent Community.

“Have you ever had something you were looking forward to so much, and you had to put so much effort and energy in planning that thing and it's consumed your mind and kept you up at night? And you're up in the morning and you're barely eating or you're over eating? Because you're putting so much effort into this thing?” (Molly, 1:49) Yeah, this happened to Angela as they prepared for and then hosted a huge, very important event for them, and we dare say the entire ND community. Join us in this episode to hear why Molly says, “A whole bunch of listeners just felt really seen” (34:52).

Rebecca A. Weiner, M.Ed. is back with us today in this powerful episode about inclusion, advocacy and self-advocacy, IEPs and other learning plans and goal-setting, and the power of curiosity (seriously, she has an amazing story about a classroom transformation all thanks to the power of “so what” and “what-if” in one of the classrooms she has collaborated with). Molly brings in real-life questions and experiences from a parent perspective and Angela speaks about poverty, justice, and access—or lack of it—to resources which make it easier or exponentially more difficult for students, parents, teachers, staff members, schools, and the community to have what they need for education to be meaningful and effective.
