Unlock the secrets to understanding and supporting gifted and twice exceptional individuals in our latest episode with Gail Post, a clinical psychologist with over 35 years of experience. Gail's expertise in intellectual and musical giftedness, coupled with her personal journey as a parent of two gifted children, brings invaluable insights to our discussion. We promise you'll gain a deeper understanding of the emotional and practical challenges faced by gifted individuals and their families, and learn strategies to foster their unique talents.
We explore the broad spectrum of giftedness, dispelling the myth that it’s solely about high IQ. Gail shares her expertise on recognizing talents in areas like creativity, mechanics, and the arts, and the critical importance of identifying twice exceptional children, who may also have ADHD, autism, or other learning differences. The conversation covers the emotional struggles gifted individuals face, such as social awkwardness and existential issues, and emphasizes the importance of validating these experiences. We'll also discuss the difficulties in identifying giftedness in girls and children from diverse backgrounds, and the challenges parents encounter during this journey.
Our deep dive into self-discovery for gifted adults and parents reveals how crucial it is to understand one's own needs and emotions to better support gifted children. We'll discuss the parallels between parenting and professional leadership, strategies for managing sensitivities in work environments, and the pressure to conform to societal expectations. Gail provides practical advice on self-advocacy and the importance of finding supportive communities. This episode is a must-listen for parents, educators, and anyone navigating the world of giftedness, offering compassion, guidance, and reassurance.
