In this episode, Em introduces her NeuroWild Shift - “a new education shift for neurodivergent kids at school. If you are a teacher, this is for you. If you have a neurodivergent kid at school, this is for you (to give to the teacher). If you are a coordinator or principal or work in a school- have a read.”
