301: Helping Neurodivergent Kids Crack the Code of Thriving in a Neurotypical World, with Matt Zakreski, PsyD

In this episode of Beautifully Complex, I’m joined by Dr. Matt Zakreski, who shares compelling strategies from his new book, "Neurodiversity Playbook." We discuss how important it is to create a neuro-affirming environment that celebrates authenticity while equipping our kids with the social skills to thrive in a neurotypical world.

You'll gain step-by-step guidance on helping your child build a supportive community, fostering emotional growth while also growing their confidence and competence. With practical advice, we'll show you how to make those unspoken rules of social interaction more visible to level the playing field, ensuring your child feels safe, understood, and empowered.

Tune in for a warm and supportive conversation that ensures you're not alone on this journey. Together, we'll foster a sense of hope and possibility, offering actionable tips to help your neurodivergent child crack the code of a complex world.
