Refocused, Together: Brittany Bronson and the Cost of her Impulsivity

Brittany Bronson is a global diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) leader, research professor, and first-generation doctoral student. She also loses her keys, locks herself out of her home, loses her bank cards, and can compulsively spend money for the dopamine rush. So at age 31, she sought out answers.  

 

Today, Britt teaches two research courses and promotes an inclusive classroom environment. She discloses to her students that she has combined type ADHD and encourages students to come to her with any accommodations they need. She’s also a mom to three children and together, they embrace ADHD as a family.

 

Tune in to hear about Britt’s experience, the obstacles Black women face getting a diagnosis and care later in life, and why it is more important than ever to create better spaces for neurodivergent students.
