“What is neurodivergence and what does it mean to be neurodivergent?”
Yes, it can be a loaded question with arguable answers. Put simply, neurodivergence is thinking outside of the box … all the time (even when you don’t want to do so).
The planner for people who cannot plan
Dani Donovan, creator of ADHD Comics & The Anti-Planner: How to Get Stuff Done When You Don’t Feel Like It (a surprisingly helpful tool you really have to see!) is having a $10-off sale on all versions——including the newer-edition clean version. (That’s anti-swears, but also pro-cleaning … even when ADHD tries to self-sabotage.) This planner system works for people who need more in-the-now forms of planning motivation, using flip tabs, humorous comics, decision-making dice roll games & more.
3 links for better thinks
If executive function (that decision-making part that’s often part of the “spice” of neuro-spicy neurodivergence) has you stymied, never fear: Here are links to resources & training for people who need to learn it and people who want to teach it.
Dr. Becky Kennedy is offering Q-&-A-style training to the parents in her online support community, Good Inside, this month, specifically on developing executive functioning skills in their kiddos.
Executive function challenges aren’t just part of childhood. For those with neurodivergence, there are “good days” & “bad/hard days” (or even moments). The Depression Bipolar Support Alliance offers peer specialist training throughout the year with summer offerings coming up in June.

The freebie pictured above was this week’s accompanying downloadable gift to BLJ’s GrowthMinded support community. You don’t have to be neuro-spicy to use it! (But it still works if you are, too.)
