Does your tween or teen ask “why am I like this?” Maybe they freeze when given a simple task, fall apart after school, or feel like they’re “too much”. In this episode, Dr Jodi and author and educator Sharon Witt explore what’s really going on inside a neurodivergent brain, and how to help young people understand themselves, ask for what they need and thrive. Sharon’s new book, My Brain Works Differently, is a colourful, easy-to-dip-into guide for tweens, teens and the adults who love and support them.  

Dr Jodi Richardson and Sharon Witt discuss:
Why simple tasks can feel impossible, and how to help
Giving young people the words to self-advocate
Easing sensory overload at home and school
Rejection sensitivity and catching “thought thieves”
Seeing neurodivergence as a discovery, not a disorder
