Gifted but Struggling: What 2E ADHD Kids Really Need | Dr. Norrine Russell

André, The Impulsive Thinker™, sits down with Dr. Norrine Russell to break down the often misunderstood world of twice-exceptional (2e) kids—those who are both gifted and neurodiverse, like having ADHD or autism. If you’re an ADHD Entrepreneur or parent who’s puzzled by how intelligence and emotional challenges can clash, this episode’s for you. André and Dr. Russell dig into what “gifted” really means, why intellect doesn’t guarantee maturity, and how to better support 2e kids—and adults—at home or work. Get ready to rethink assumptions and learn why emotional growth doesn’t always keep pace with sharp brains.
