3. Darwin's Finches, Evolution, and Avian Intelligence AUTHOR: Stephen Moss BOOK TITLE: 10 Birds That Changed the World This excerpt addresses the myth that Darwin immediately understood evolution from the Galapagos Finches; he actually focused on pigeons in The Origin of Species. The finches were only named in his honor about 100 years after his birth. It highlights the work of Peter and Rosemary Grant, who demonstrated that birds can evolve very quickly (in a couple of years) when conditions, such as El Niño, change dramatically. The discussion concludes by noting that all birds, including the Australian Magpie, exhibit high levels of intelligence.

Where did Elon Musk's epic ambitions begin? In search of clues we return to his sheltered youth in apartheid South Africa, a world engineered for white supremacy. Along the way, we connect the dots between a bizarre White House ambush of South African president Cyril Ramaphosa to teenage Elon's ego-powered quests in video games. Finally, was his “draft dodge” from military service a moral act or an opportunist's exit? Know more, now.

When a teacher says your child is “too smart” for special education services, it doesn't feel like a compliment — it's more like a roadblock!Parent advocate Danielle Ward joins us to unpack what this response often means and how it might signal twice exceptionality, where giftedness masks real struggles. She shares practical strategies for moving forward when the system says “no,” even when your child clearly needs support.We also break down what legally qualifies a student for an IEP, when a 504 plan might be a helpful tool, and how to push through to get your child the support they need.For more on this topic: Listen: IEPs: The difference between IEPs and 504 plansRead: All about twice-exceptional studentsBook: Differently Wired Kids, by Debbie Reber (TILT Parenting)Resource: School Avoidance AllianceTimestamps:(05:00) What is 2E (twice exceptionality)?(09:20) Who is legally eligible for an IEP?(13:04) How 504 plans can support your child(18:47) Understanding academic vs. educational impactFor a transcript and more resources, visit the In It page on Understood.org.

Artificial intelligence has cemented itself as the latest world-altering technology. It follows the same lineage as electricity, the television, the internet — the list goes on. Depending on who you talk to, AI is the greatest thing ever or the thing that will destroy the world, with lots of room in the middle for discussion and experimentation. But within the bigger AI fascination, there's a smaller yet critical conversation about how this technology might help or harm people who learn and think differently. That's why we brought in Dr. Amy Gaeta for this week's “Hyperfocus.” She's an AI ethicist and researcher who also has autism, giving her a unique insight that she shares on our latest episode. For more on this topicAmy's websiteWhat is assistive technology?6 ways AI can help you manage ADHD symptomsHow software and apps can help with math challengesUnderstood AssistantTimestamps(03:40) AI in the workplace(10:16) Disability justice and technology(13:45) AI's built-in bias against disability (17:15) How to find helpful, safe AI uses(21:08) Chatbot therapy (25:14) What does the future hold for AI and neurodivergence? For a transcript and more resources, visit the Hyperfocus page on Understood.org.

Have you ever felt like a fraud, even in the work you know best? Dr. Nerissa Bauer has. After years as a researcher, teacher, and children's doctor, burnout led her to step away from academia. Not long after, she found out she had ADHD herself. At first, the diagnosis left her embarrassed and full of questions. How could she have missed it for so long?That turning point brought both sadness and relief, and it changed the way she connects with families. Since then, Nerissa has built a new path in telehealth and started Teach Me ADHD, an online course for families. In this episode, she talks about how burnout and her own ADHD diagnosis reshaped her work — and how they help her show up more honestly for others.For more on this topicNerissa's organization, Let's Talk Kids HealthADHD burnoutADHD and: Imposter syndromeTimestamps(00:00) Intro(01:23) ADHD and burnout, and losing structure(08:23) Nerissa's ADHD evaluation as a physician herself, and imposter syndrome(16:42) What is the value of an ADHD diagnosis as an adult?

“You are important, you are valued, you are worthy. God created YOU with a specific plan and purpose for your life. And in order to get the best out of that, do the work, do what you need to do. Remember that you are a child of God, that you're forgiven.” —Sue Fries If you're feeling weighed down by regret, shame, or the quiet ache of loneliness, you're not alone—and you don't have to carry it by yourself. Sometimes life's hardest moments leave us questioning our worth or wondering if things can really change. But there's hope, and it starts with a little kindness toward yourself and the courage to believe you're meant for more. Sue's story is a gentle reminder that healing is possible, even when the past feels heavy. She's walked through deep pain and self-doubt, yet found her way to purpose and peace by learning to forgive, speak gentle truths over her life, and open her heart to new beginnings. This episode dives into finding purpose, breaking free from shame, the power of forgiveness, and how your words can shape your future—plus honest advice for business, faith, and personal growth.   Be Inspired! with Daniel:  Website (Makings of a Millionaire Mindset) Website (Daniel Gomez Global) Facebook Facebook Group X Instagram LinkedIn Pinterest YouTube   Episode Highlights: 03:18 Seek to Understand Than to be Understood  08:10 Why Am I Here? 16:52 From Alone Again to Alive Again  20:58 The Grace in Forgiveness 29:58 It's Okay to Prosper

t for a few months now and it's definitely one that I'm always on the look out for new episodes. Rae does a great job with her interviews, asking both the basic questions to help ground the conversation, but also getting into the more nuanced issues that come with neurodivergence.  Today, I'm going to share an episode with you where Rae talks with Dr. Christine Hargrove, a Marriage & Family Therapist with a focus on neurodiversity and financial therapy that she uses to help individuals and couples understand how their symptoms affect their financial behavior. And honestly, this is a great episode - I know so many people who struggle with their finances, but more specifically, struggle directly because of their ADHD.   Be sure to subscribe to Hyperfocus with Rea Jacobson in your podcast player!

Stealthing, the removal of a condom during sex without a partner's knowledge or consent, has in recent years become a criminal offence in almost all parts of Australia. But experts say there is still a lack of awareness about what stealthing is and the dangers it poses.

Craig Thomas is best known for his work on TV. He co-created the sitcom “How I Met Your Mother” and has written for “American Dad” and more. He's penned songs for “Sesame Street” and essays for “The New Yorker.” He's less known for being a dad. For now, at least.

Derek Miller wears many hats: money coach, musician, athlete, performer, cider guide, and more. His ADHD story is just as full of twists. Derek didn't find out he had ADHD until college. The jump from high school left him struggling to focus — especially while also caring for his wife during her cancer treatment. To get through the stress, he often used caffeine, while also working on managing his emotions and finding ways to improve himself.Derek's view of life and money also changed during his time in Mozambique, where he served as a Mormon missionary. That experience shaped how he thinks about community and resilience. In this episode of “ADHD Aha!,” host Laura Key talks with Derek about majoring in math even though he had math anxiety, how he learned to handle his emotions and focus, and why he now helps others build a healthier relationship with money.For more on this topicADHD and managing moneyADHD and caffeineDerek's financial education instagramTimestamps(00:00) Intro(01:07) Derek's college ADHD diagnosis story(05:53) Math anxiety(09:04) Self awareness and introspection(12:32) How emotional money can be(15:49) Derek's time living in Mozambique, and what he learned about rejection sensitivity(21:40) What's next for Derek(22:53) Outro and creditsFor a transcript and more resources, visit the ADHD Aha! show page on Understood.org. We love hearing from our listeners!

As a parent, it's heartbreaking to hear your child say “I'm stupid.”Whether it comes after a tough day at school, a frustrating homework session, or a comment that hit the wrong nerve, that feeling can really stick. Dr. Kristin Carothers joins us to unpack where this kind of negative self-talk comes from. What's happening beneath the surface?

We live in a culture that often celebrates the ‘perfect' relationship but does little to prepare us for the reality of long-term commitment. Modern life is filled with idealised images of love and marriage – but the truth, as this week's returning guest suggests, is far more human, messy and ultimately hopeful.   I'm delighted to welcome Alain de Botton back to the podcast. Alain is an author, internationally acclaimed philosopher and founder of The School of Life, a hugely popular education and wellness organisation that provides guidance on how to achieve happiness and fulfilment.  His latest book, ‘From Trauma to Healing: How to Locate, Process and Recover From Psychological Wounds' helps us understand what trauma is, how it affects us and what we can do about it. During this incredible conversation, we discuss: Why the idea that we will “marry the right person” sets us up for disappointment How our childhood experiences shape who we're drawn to as adults The hidden cost of perfectionism in relationships The cultural myths about soulmates, instant understanding and effortless romance, and how these ideas can undermine lasting love How unprocessed trauma can resurface in our closest relationships, and why learning to communicate our needs is an essential skill The surprising role that distance, independence and time apart can play in sustaining desire and intimacy   There's something deeply reassuring in knowing that love doesn't have to look like the stories we grew up with. And by letting go of these cultural myths and by embracing each other's flaws, we improve not only our relationships, but also how happy and contented we feel.  I hope you enjoy listening.

Today I'm talking with Danielle Elliot, a health and science journalist, documentarian, and host of Climbing the Walls, an investigative podcast from Understood.org digging into the surge in ADHD diagnoses among women—especially since the pandemic. If that sounds familiar, it's cause I did a number of ads for her show a few months back, and I just wanted to make sure that I mention that, since while I'm not getting paid for this episode, I have done work with Understood before and probably will be promoting more of their stuff in the future. Anyway, in our conversation today, we cover a lot of ground, from debunking the idea that no one knew women could have ADHD until recently, to how social media has reshaped the conversation, to why research on hormones and ADHD is still way behind. We also get into the everyday realities of living with ADHD, the default mode network, and why we need far more research into how ADHD shows up in women. It's a mix of science, lived experience, and the kind of practical reflection that can help you rethink how ADHD fits into your life. If you'd life to follow along on the show notes page you can find that at http://hackingyouradhd.com/241 YouTube: https://tinyurl.com/y835cnrk Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HackingYourADHD This Episode's Top Tips 1. Instead of guessing when you've overbooked yourself, start tracking it like an experiment. For a few weeks, note each day you have social, professional, or mentally demanding activities beyond your baseline, then try and figure out how many consecutive “on” days it takes before you feel fried. 2. Downtime doesn't magically appear and needs to be scheduled on the calendar, or it often just gets eaten by other people's needs or whatever's loudest in the moment. If someone asks you to do something during that block, you can truthfully say you already have something scheduled. Treating self-care time as a legit appointment protects it from getting deprioritized just because it's “only for you.” 3. A common ADHD trap is overestimating how awful or time-consuming a task will be, which makes it easier to avoid it. Try timing your tasks to give yourself actual data to challenge your brain's “this will take forever” narrative and can turn a dreaded job into something you knock out in a couple of minutes. 4. Consider hormonal factors when tracking ADHD symptoms, as hormones have a big influence on your ADHD symptoms, yet are often overlooked. Hormonal changes can affect focus, energy, mood, and even how well ADHD medication works. Tracking your symptoms alongside your cycle or other hormonal shifts can help you spot patterns and adjust strategies accordingly.
