Summary

My guest today is content creator, Frances, from TikTok. She most often covers topics related to Black maternal health and mental health, but today we venture into her personal experience in being a neurodivergent Black woman. Join us! Show Highlights: ● How Frances is affected by neurodivergent issues like dyslexia, sensory processing disorder, and stimming (There is much more to neurodivergence beyond ADHD and autism!) ● How a knowledgeable teacher caught Frances’ problems early in elementary school ● How differences in cultures play out in the ways neurodivergence might be manifested ● Why there are many shortfalls in identifying learning disabilities because too many teachers assume the problems are behavioral ● Why it is difficult as the parent of a neurodivergent child to find balance in privacy, protection, and sharing information with others ● Frances’ opinions on her childhood accommodations that were most impactful and least impactful for her ● How Frances functions with accommodations in the workplace as an adult Resources and Links: Connect with Frances: TikTok Connect with KC: Website, TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook Get KC’s book, How to Keep House While Drowning We love the sponsors that make this show possible!
