It was devastating.

And I had no idea what had gone wrong.

So I started talking to colleagues and the main advice I got was you started too young, we just need to wait till kids start to ask us.

And at the same time, I was working with a lot of adults who had learning and developmental differences.

And so I started asking them.

What did you understand about your brain when you were young?

And inevitably they said, I just assumed I was stupid.

I was told I was lazy.

And it just heartbreaking story after heartbreaking story about what that narrative was.

But it was clear that they had started to create that narrative really, really young.

And so it wasn't an option for me to wait.

I realized that we have this opportunity to really start helping kids create.

This empowered and positive narrative around how their brain works from a very young age.

And that we could avoid all of those years of thinking, these negative and harmful thoughts, if we started the conversation, if we figured out, if we cracked the nut on how to have this conversation really early.

continue it throughout their development so that the narrative is positive and helpful.

That kid is my why.

And how long ago was that?

That was twelve years ago now.

So I've been on this journey for a while.

I don't think so.
