90 Gifted + AuDHD: Why It Matters (part 1)

Being AuDHD + gifted is being an outlier of outliers. I'd guess most of us feel like aliens.

And even when we start to understand the shape of our experiences, it can feel overwhelming to even begin to order our understanding in a satisfying way. (Autoethnography, anyone?)

Our depth and intensity needs can be quite challenging to meet, especially if we have lower physiological capacity due to trauma/CPTSD, and other intersectional identities that are often marginalized/mistreated.


This became part one of two!


Mentioned in episode:

1. Some giftedness models:

2. Neurocomplexity & PDA as existential intelligence

3. Autism/ADHD/Gifted Venn Diagram

4. Overexcitabilities & being "too much"

5. Ember Green's quick IQ doesn't exist overview + Aspie Supremacy deep dive (p.s. this video is 2 hrs long and made me cry a LOT bc of historical horrors... still worth it if/when you have the spoons)
