In this episode of The Neurodivergent Report, Sarah and JQ welcome back Sol Smith, certified autism specialist, author of The Autistic’s Guide to Self-Discovery, and founder of the NeuroSpicy Community!
Curious what’s inside:
Autonomy and choice are essential for neurodivergent learners
PDA as a drive for autonomy rather than “demand avoidance”
“There’s no such thing as an academic emergency…”
Supporting kids’ special interests as pathways to motivation and resilience
Importance of self-advocacy skills
However you are able to engage, thanks for being here!
With love, Sarah 💜
