What if intelligence isn’t the effortless advantage we think it is? In this episode, Dr. Theresa Haskins explores the hidden challenges faced by gifted and twice-exceptional individuals — from burnout and loneliness to perfectionism and overlooked support needs. You’ll hear why being smart doesn’t always mean having it easy, and how brilliance can mask deeper struggles. Whether you’re raising a gifted child, were one yourself, or support neurodivergent learners at work or school, this episode will challenge what you thought you knew about giftedness — and invite you to see the whole person behind the potential.
