Brilliant Minds?

In this episode, Olivia and Andrea explore the silly and unique (or not so unique) challenges and experiences of individuals with ADHD and neurodivergence. They discuss personal 'icks' that arise from being neurodivergent, including boredom, sensory overload, and communication frustrations. The conversation delves into coping mechanisms, the role of humor in their lives, and the importance of planning and organization. They also reflect on social interactions and the impact of these experiences on their daily lives, concluding with thoughts on the upcoming holiday season.

As a reminder, there will be no episode on Christmas! But we will be back with another episode on New Years DAY!

In today’s episode, we dig into what supervision really looks like in the counseling world — the good, the hard, and the genuinely meaningful parts of supporting new clinicians. We talk about what healthy supervision requires, how to create spaces that actually feel safe, and the patterns we’ve seen come up with supervisees.

And yes… we also somehow end up talking about Olivia’s family cinnamon roll recipe (because comfort food and supervision vibes go hand-in-hand, right?).

📌 Trader Joes Maple Sea Salt Kettle Korn. RUN don't walk!
