Full-Tilt Parenting: Strategies, Insights, and Connection for Parents Raising Neurodivergent Children · TPP 130: Julie Skolnick of With Understanding Comes Calm on Advocating for 2e Kids · 12 Oct 2018 podcast

And suddenly the world of positive reframe strength-based approach was opened up to me in my whole life and my kids' lives changed.

And after going on this huge journey, when my first child was identified as gifted and ADHD,

and spending three years literally learning everything I could about ADHD, suddenly there was this whole other thing I was learning about, and it really resonated.

Lots of different things happened, lots of support along the way, and I decided to pay it forward after going through this journey.

So now, with Understanding Comes Calm has sort of morphed over the last five years.

It started out, my tagline was Supporting Parents of Gifted and Distractible Children.

And so I really started out doing one-to-one or one-to-two consulting with parents, either in person or via video.

Because I've been really grateful to be able to support people all over the world.

And then adults would read.

I have a blog and a newsletter, Gifted and Distractible, that comes out every month electronically and is free.

And so adults would be reading about emotional overexcitability.

And I get these emails.

Oh, my God, you're the only person who understands me.

Can you help me?

So then I started guiding and mentoring adults and then teachers started to, and principals would contact me and say, could you train our teachers?

And then clinicians started to come on board saying, could you sit in on our case meetings to help us understand 2E?

And so this whole, it just mushroomed and became a really awesome, you know, like if I have all those legs of the stool, Debbie, if I have

parents and I have educators and I have clinicians and I'm servicing all of them, then in servicing each of them, I'm able to do it in a really holistic way because I really truly understand each of the perspectives.

So I love that.

And the last thing I'll say is that I also like to do events and I have different events that I do, whether it's locally here in Maryland, screening of films or hot off the press, two days of 2E virtual conference that's coming up.
