The Unfinished Idea podcast

The Unfinished Idea

Welcome to The Unfinished Idea, a space for you to expand your understanding about the neurodiverse world that is all around us. What is it like raising a child with ADHD and autism? How does a neurodivergent person see and interact with the world? This podcast will share practical help, tips, and insights into the joys, struggles, and differences of everyday experiences of this special world.  I'm Greer, mom to two boys & two dogs and, together with my husband, raising a child with Special Educational Needs. Our day-to-day experience isn't being talked about in everyday life and I see a gap in those leading people who are neurodiverse. Whether you are a parent, a friend, a teacher, or a neighbor, it needs to be a joint effort. I created this podcast to build a “over a cup of coffee” kind of conversation with you and me -- helping to bring awareness and better understanding about those who are neurodivergent and families who are raising children with additional needs. Each week, I will spend 30 minutes talking and interviewing others in the neurodiverse space and giving you the opportunity to learn, grow, feel seen and heard by how we interact with each other.
