Today I’m talking nerdy about neurodiversity with Alex Martynowicz.  In today’s conversation, Alex breaks down for us what neurodiversity is, the rise in neurodivergent diagnoses like ADHD and ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder), the difference between neurodivergent awareness and supportive action, and how neurotypical individuals can foster a greater environment of inclusivity and celebration. 

Alex is a Board Certified Behavior Analyst and yoga teacher, working with neurodivergent teens at a middle school through Acceptance and Commitment Training, yoga, mindfulness, and breathwork. Her neurodivergent-affirming practices aim to empower her students and give them tools to show up authentically, reduce anxiety, and live in a way that is in alignment with their own values.

Alex is also a graduate of my neuroscience-based Breathwork + Meditation Teacher Training which we reference in this episode. 

Before you dive in, I would love it if you could hit pause and leave us a 5 star review and a written review on whatever platform you’re listening on. In doing so, you help get this podcast into the ears and brains of more people like you. Now let’s dive in and start talking nerdy!
