Pathmakers - Ep10 - Julie
In this episode I chat with Julie Legg author, podcaster, actor, musician, homesteader and late diagnosed adhder. We discuss her book, podcast, misconceptions and myths of ADHD and some of the strategies she adopts to help manage her symptoms. Julie's book, The Missing Piece, combines her own lived experience of being diagnosed with research and powerful personal stories from other Kiwi women with ADHD. It's a go-to reference for any stage of your journey, whether you're newly diagnosed, exploring the possibility, or supporting someone who is. She carries on the conversation along with her husband on their podcast ADHDifference.Home - Julie LeggADHDifference podcasthttps://open.spotify.com/show/42EAPqQrS5BQjbYUTK5V2Y?si=e6649974de074ed2

Pathmakers - Ep 09 - Holly
I'm joined by Holly Gooch from The Hyphen Project for a fantastic kōrero about Twice Exceptional (2e) kids and how her six-month intensive programme for neurodivergent teens (16-19) is helping them build confidence, purpose and collaborative skills that prepare them for adulthood. The Hyphen Project program is for teens that haven't thrived in traditional school settings and Holly shares with us the impact it's having on their young lives and why rethinking education matters now more than ever.
