No Shame In Neurodiversity

Lacey and Sara welcome guest Corie Wightlin, an executive functioning coach. Corie offers valuable insights on dealing with neurodiversity, such as ADHD and autism, both at home and in work environments. She openly shares her personal experiences as a neurodiverse individual and as a parent of neurodiverse children, highlighting how these experiences have shaped her career path. The discussion revolves around the impact of neurodiversity on executive functions, such as prioritization and time management, and explores various strategies to develop these skills, regardless of one's neurodiversity. Corie emphasizes the significance of identifying motivation and creating personalized strategies. Throughout the conversation, the hosts also contribute their own experiences and discuss the tools they have found helpful. The main takeaway is the importance of recognizing neurodiversity and finding the right tools to manage it, all while prioritizing self-care and showing compassion.
