  • Helps

    Whether or not you have a diagnosis. I get that there’s are probably reasons about how my day doesn’t roll out like planned. I don’t want to have to read as many self help books as Jen has, but having her explain what is going on plus tips about mitigation is worthwhile. I feel like managers should listen to this too. Her voice is familiar and soothing many of us enjoyed her other projects in podcasting and specials. A pro at speaking and writing it’s clear.

    Kids didn’t understand me and vice versa. My teachers were exasperated constantly... more
