When they walk into the workplace.
The neurodiversity narrative honors that.
That there's nuance, that there's complexity, that our brains are diverse, right?
And that there are many more people than not that are actually experiencing that way of moving through the world.
So it, you know, the idea of conjoining them into one awareness week was always a fit for us, given the kind of movie that we're making.
All of my gifted stories are also neurodiverse stories.
Almost every character is experiencing.
some sort of, you know, twice or thrice exceptionality or multipotentiality.
And this is the gifted world that I know.
This is the century that I think we're living and working in.
These are the things that will be important for us to be thinking about as we try to meet our students where they are in this century, right?
This is the neurodiverse entry.
So there can be no discussions about the brain or intelligence or giftedness without neurodiversity being a part of the discussion.
Right.
So thank you, Debbie.
This this year's theme for GTN Awareness Week is hashtag gifted joy.
And this year, as we were thinking about what we wanted to do with GTN Awareness Week, and we were sort of polling our advisors and our partners, and and I'm, you know, myself and my team sort of constantly, you know, monitoring this sort of media ecosystem around giftedness, is that one thing that we know for sure is that gifted spaces are
full of trauma.
I mean, it is just trauma, trauma, trauma, trauma, trauma, trauma, trauma.
And for my part, I don't think we can be in a community and have it all be about showing up to address trauma, right?
