When High IQ is Part of the Problem with Debbie
About this episode
Does your brilliant child, teen, or young adult struggle with everyday tasks? It can be incredibly frustrating when they aren’t living up to their IQ potential.
Society often equates intelligence with success, but the reality is more complex. Research also shows that those with high IQs have brains that may actually be getting in the way of their success.
Tune in as I discuss some of the challenges high IQ neurodivergent young people face and important ways we can better support their development.
