PDA, Neurodivergence & the Perpetually Determined Advocate11 Juli 2021

Episode 5 - Books!

This time I wanted to combine the podcast with a love of mine, books. The books presented in this episode look at PDA from varied persepctives, and are also aimed at a variety of audiences. So, whether you are looking for a way to see PDA through the lens of a PDAer, understand it as a parent or teacher, or provide understanding of PDA to a child, I have something for you. I would like to point out that I am not affiliated with any of the authors, and am not receiving any commissions from promoting their work. I merely list them here because I found them to be useful and insightful. As always, a transcript of the episode can be provided. Simply email me at perpetuallydeterminedadvocate@gmail.com.
