Episode 18: Neurodivergence and Flexischooling with Anna Granta
In today's episode, I have the privilege and honor of introducing you to Anna Granta. Anna Granta has ADHD and dyslexia and is an expert in supporting neurodivergent adults at work.
Anna Granta coaches professional, neurodivergent, adults (i.e. ADHD, ASD, Dyslexia etc) working with the whole person, with a focus on achieving greater impact at work. Her clients become more confident, more skilled at working with others, and better able to work on tasks that are most impactful. Anna believes that neurodivergent adults are an asset to organizations and thrive in the right environment.
Anna has two sons, aged 6 and 3, and she flexischools her oldest, which means he attends school 4 days a week and is homeschooled 1 day a week.
