Neurodiversity Podcast

Emily Kircher-Morris brings a rare combination of professional expertise and genuine warmth to conversations about neurodivergence. As a licensed counselor and gifted education specialist, she sits down each week with psychologists, educators, and advocates to talk through everything from executive function struggles to twice-exceptionality. The interview format keeps things focused -- episodes typically run 35 to 45 minutes, long enough to get into substance without dragging. One week she might be talking with Dr. Ross Greene about rethinking behavioral approaches, and the next she is unpacking rejection sensitivity dysphoria with a researcher who actually lives with it. What makes the show stand apart from most neurodiversity content is the balance between parent-facing advice and respect for neurodivergent perspectives. Emily never talks about neurodivergent kids like they are problems to be solved. Instead, episodes consistently circle back to strengths-based thinking without ignoring real challenges. The production quality is solid, the pacing is good, and with over 300 episodes in the archive, there is a genuinely useful back catalog covering ADHD, autism, giftedness, learning disabilities, and the overlap between them. Rated 4.8 stars from over 400 reviews on Apple Podcasts. If you care about neurodiversity-affirming approaches in education or parenting, this one earns its spot near the top of the list.
